Diamond Lake help

JustAGal fixed two links in the article and mentioned needing help with Diamond Lake with this edit. I looked into it but don't see what needs help. It does look like the Diamond Lake disambiguation page is somewhat clumsy linking to this page (it takes two clicks). Is that the issue? —EncMstr (talk) 19:18, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

I just fixed it and then saw this note. I think the problem was there is another Diamond Lake in Oregon listed at List of lakes named Diamond that doesn't have an article, and being unfamiliar with our geography, she couldn't be sure if she should disambig it to the current Oregon article or to the as-yet-unwritten one. I took a quick glance at the description of the lake with the link needing disambiguation and concluded it should link to the current Diamond Lake (Oregon) article. I didn't check a map or click on the coords but I don't think the other Diamond Lake in Union County is anywhere near the Umpqua. I hope that helps. Valfontis (talk) 20:05, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Yup, Lemolo Lake is just north of the Umpqua Diamond Lake,[1], and the other Diamond Lake is high in the Wallowa Mountains.[2] LittleMountain5 20:53, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
