This page was a straight redirect to Trail, which is simply wrong for many English speakers. In Irish, Australia, New Zealand, and Indian English usage, a footpath is always unambiguously a sidewalk, and "footpath" is the primary term used to refer to such. An immediate redirect to Trail is confusing for any English speaker from those cultures, so this needs to be disambiguated here rather than redirected. -dmmaus 22:41, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
