As a frequent user and sometime editor, I wanted to bring up a problem. I was typing in "goligher" to find Kathleen Goligher's page (she's a debunked medium) and I kept getting this page. I had to type in the full name to find it. Would it be right delink "goligher" from this page and is it possible?

page (about the comedian), but I've replaced that link with a link to the proper section on the list of people by name, so this is now redundant (nothing links here but talk pages now). Fewer pages to update as more "Gallaghers" achieve fame. I also think this is the most sensibile way of handling

That's probably reasonable--probably anyone just typing "Gallagher" is most likely looking for the comic, or their town--disamb pages don't even always have people who happen to have the given word as a last name, since it isn't that likely people will type just someone's last name.

Keep. Laudable goal, but life's not that simple--there are three communities named Gallagher, and one already has a Knowledge (XXG) article, so a proper disamb page seems more appropriate.

Ah. Yes, now that a non-person has been added it doesn't work so well. Though I guess I'd now suggest a link from the disambig page to the list of people page (as is done with
