Chicago Storm → Chicago Storm (soccer) – there are two teams historically named the Chicago Storm, both now defunct. I delineated between the teams by creating a Chicago Storm (soccer) having already established a Chicago Storm (professional softball team) page. I moved the content of the Chicago Storm page, which was specific to the soccer team to the new page and made this a disambiguation page. Perhaps the issue here is a copy and paste method, which may not carry forward history. My apologies if that is incorrect. The structure created is, I believe correct. The methodology may need some editorial assistance. My thanks. Nbeeker (talk) 21:44, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
In reviewing additional policies suggested by an editor, I believe this page as a disambiguation is correct as neither would be considered a primary topic. Both are, in essence, equally defunct historical teams. My error was using a copy and paste (not a move). My apologies, a clear error and a learning point. It strikes me that a hatnote offers alternatives to a primary topic, and while offered on each page to assist a reader, my read of the disambiguation and the starting point of determining a primary topic led me to convert this page to a disambiguation. Respectfully. Nbeeker (talk) 00:32, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
Conversely, I can see the logic of simply having two pages - soccer and softball - without a disambiguation page. If a reader goes to the wrong page, a hatnote directs them otherwise, and there seem to be only two options that any research is revealing for the name. I'm truly curious as to the resolution of this discussion. Nbeeker (talk) 02:15, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
