715:. Consider: the corresponding Chinese, Cantonese and Classical Chinese pages of this article are all titled "後漢" or "Later Han" without any parentheses. Looking at some other language versions, the French, Croatian, Norwegian, Finnish, Vietnamese, Ukrainian, Thai versions all managed to call this period "Later Han Dynasty" without parentheses, why can't English Wiki do the same? (It's quite conceivable that some of the other language versions that do use parentheses in their titles followed English Knowledge.) Another thing to consider is that prefixes like "Later", "Eastern", "Western", "Northern" and "Southern" are already specific disambiguation phrases added by later historians to separate the Han's apart. Why is a second level of disambiguation necessary? The

765:, as in the previous request. In English, "Later Han" most commonly refers to the Eastern Han, to the extent that it is the primary topic for the name. Most people searching for that term will be interested in the earlier period, and should not be routed through this short-lived and much less significant dynasty.

Dynasty, but we actually do not have a separate article for Eastern Han independent of the Han Dynasty article, nor is there likely to be one any time soon given the intertwined nature of the discussion in that article. As such, the disambiguation with Eastern Han
448:
This is not really the way most readers get to articles. Those that do get to the wrong article in this way can use the hatnote. So the
Eastern Han article would still be one click away. So it would be no harder to get to than it is currently through the DAB. This is all covered in
439:: This is certainly not the primary topic for "Later Han"; if there is one, it's the Eastern Han. It's not sufficient that that article already has an unambiguous title; the issue is that someone saying "Later Han dynasty" is much more likely to be talking about the Eastern Han.
405:: Later Han is a common term to refer to the Eastern Han in western literature, and people are more likely to be looking for the more prominent Han dynasty than a short-lived interregnum state. I also oppose the subtle change from "dynasty" to "Dynasty" with a capital D.
313:
It doesn't matter that it doesn't have a separate article. We can redirect "Later Han" to "Eastern Han" and add a hatnote there. There's no reason to rename the Five
Dynasties page when the Eastern Han is more likely. --
259:– There is absolutely no confusion, and no need for a disambiguation page. Eastern Han immediately follows Western Han is never called Later Han at any period. Later Han is in the Five Dynasties by default.

All that means is that "Later Han" should redirect to "Eastern Han", and that a hatnote should appear on that article. It does not mean that the Five

I'd much rather it point to the disambiguation page than the Five
