Renaming the army John Campbells?

The dab guidelines at WP:INTDABLINK state:"To link to a disambiguation page (rather than to a page whose topic is a specific meaning), link to the title that includes the text "(disambiguation)", even if that's a redirect." I don't see how my edit to restore the redirect Jack Campbell (disambiguation) is in any way incorrect. Tassedethe (talk) 19:12, 26 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Oh, sorry - I guess I didn't read the guideline. That seems like a silly rule, but a rule it is. Korny O'Near (talk) 19:44, 26 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
That's Ok, it does 2 things really. Jack Campbell (disambiguation) shows clearly to the reader what the page is, otherwise you'd write "Jack Campbell, disambiguation". Also it means that links to the dab page are clearly marked as such and the cleanup project at WP:DPL has less to do. Happy editing! Tassedethe (talk) 20:07, 26 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
