Formatting[edit]

I think the most appropriate method to handle the formatting of this page is by listing all the names together, rather than one at the top. See the "People" section at MoS:DP. By keeping one of the Richard's at the top of the page, it makes them more difficult to find and compare, when someone is clickly scanning the list. For an example, see John Doe (disambiguation). --Elonka 16:42, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My reasoning was that according to the MoS:DP guidelines, the link to the primary topic should be placed separately at the top, as this is the link most people will be looking for (the John Doe dab page should in my opinion be edited to bring it in line with this guideline). In this case (and in the case of human name dab pages in general), I agree that your formatting is preferable.

On a side note, I'm not sure that Richard Leigh is clearly the primary topic here; perhaps we should move Richard Leigh to Richard Leigh (musician) and move this dab page to Richard Leigh? --Muchness 00:58, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As you can see, I agree with your idea. Sorry I didn't discuss it first, I didn't notice this discussion here. The disambiguation page should be at simply Richard Leigh I think, but that will require an administrator to delete the page first. I've been throught the "what links here" and dab'ed all of them I could figure out. Lots of pages discussing The Da Vinci Code court case linked to the songwriter, so something had to be done!

No problem, I'm adding a move request now. --Muchness 23:34, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

Richard Leigh (disambiguation) → Richard Leigh – Per WP:DAB and above discussion, move dab to generic article name as there is no primary topic. --Muchness 23:34, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
