Move whole article to Drina River edit

Latest comment: 16 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The word Drina has other meanings, some (like the football clubs) closely associated with the river in Bosnia & Serbia and some (like the insect genus and range of novels for children) not.

For many other articles about rivers, the title contains the word River. Yet the article Drina River was a mere redirect to the article Drina. The only sensible thing to do is to move the entire article to Drina River and make Drina a disambiguation page addressing the other meanings & associations as well as the river.

This I have therefore done (I'm not the sort of guy who suggests a major task and leaves somebody else to do it). Iph 13:54, 27 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair enough. However, I disagree, on several points:

a) the river is the primary use of term, as most other things are named for it. The book and the insect are fairly obscure.

b) none of the other things is named just Drina

c) last but not the least, Special:Whatlinkshere/Drina shows that several links intended for the river were broken by the move

So, I'm reverting it for the time being. Duja► 11:03, 7 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
