[edit] Discussions older then 5 days and marked for closing

[edit] October 5, 2005

• Talk:The Black Dahlia (person) — The Black Dahlia (person) → The Black Dahlia – was moved to create disambiguation page, but all content there is about same topic. Only difference is reference to movie and film, when those can and should be listed on the main page about the topic anyway... When somebody makes a movie about Christopher Columbus we do not move the page about Columbus to Christopher Columbus (person) to make room for a disambig page at the original name. This should be no different. DreamGuy 23:28, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
