Talk:Hey

There are so many entries beginning Hey! that it seems pointless to list only two. Richard Pinch 06:51, 11 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Well according to WP:MOSDAB, the only entries that belong on a disambiguation page are those whose articles could conceivably have the same or nearly the same title as the disambig page itself, with the exception of human names. So the answer is that Hey Jude etc. don't belong here at all. — Swpbtalk.edits 23:41, 24 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hey can also be said as Hi and Hello.

Multiple Heys

edit

I'm guessing my change may be controversial so I'm just opening discussion. I don't see how "Hey Hey" or "Hey Hey Hey" or any other repetitions are ambiguous with just "Hey". Those are separate titles and we in fact already have a dab page for Hey Hey. There was also one for Hey hey hey, but was later redirected here. Can any editor provide a special reasoning that those titles should be included here? -- Fyrael (talk) 06:41, 1 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

I've reverted your changes for now because you removed a bunch of terms from any chance of being presented to people requiring disambiguation. At least for now, several other multiple-hey pages are pointing here, so if there's going to be a change, it needs to be a holistic reorganization, not just a deletion here.
I don't care either way, whether repeated "hey"s are handled here or on respective multiple-"hey" pages, but I started disambiguating among several "hey hey hey"s yesterday and then discovered that multiple "hey"s were already being handled here, so I went for consistency. If there's a consensus to treat each number of iterations of "hey" on its own dab page, then, as I said, that needs to be taken care of in a concerted manner. —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:05, 1 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
