I think that if somebody types in "Blue Screen", they should be taken immediately to the blue screen page about the special effects thing, which should then have a link to the Blue Screen of Death at the top. I have 2 reasons for this: 1) Most people looking for the Blue Screen of Death will probably know of it as the Blue Screen of Death. Those who don't know the term or who simply type in "blue screen" can then click the link at the top of Blue Screen (special effects) page. 2) More people are probably looking up the special effects blue screen than the blue screen of death.

Although I do believe that a search for blue screen should take the user immediately to the blue screen (special effects) page, I also believe it is debatable enough that it take the user to a disambiguation page, which is why I wanted there to be a few more opinions before any change is made.

Nevermind. I was thinking of green screen with the special effects. However, it now seems that enough of the people typing in "Blue Screen" will be looking for the Blue Screen of Death to make that page the defualt for that search. That page can have a link to the special effects blue screen at the top. Chris3145 20:18, 28 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
