- Richard B. Russell & Dick Russell → Richard Russell. No pages link to either of these redirects, and they are the only links to Richard Russell, which is a disambiguation page anyway. Junkyard prince 01:01, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Richard B. Russell, it's too specific to point to a disambig page with several listings that have no middle initial. Keep Dick Russell, Dick is a commonly used nickname for Richard. --Unfocused 04:49, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I would be tempted to keep the first one as well, to prevent creation of a duplicate article, aid linking, etc. Noel (talk) 14:55, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- One of the potential targets shown on the disambiguation page doesn't have the middle initial "B". The disambig targeted by "Richard B." shouldn't include him. It looks like there may be a need for two layers of disambig here. --Unfocused 22:49, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, but people will figure out which entries don't apply when they get to the disambig page. (I mean, that's the whole point of disambig pages, no?!) Two levels of disambig seems superfluous; after all, they are meant to be read by humans, who presumably have some minimal level of common sense (I know, bad assumption :-).
