Talk:NSA

NSA is not exclusive to the United States National Security Agency

CC from NSA (disambiguation): A misguided redirect in a global resource caused just over 5000 page viewers seeking "NSA" to be redirected to the National Security Agency in the month of November without brakes and the redirect was introduced by a nameless Wikipedia editor who seems to think that the initials NSA 'are the same as' or primal to the National Security Agency despite the initials being used prior to their very existence as a company of the United States government. The statistics indicate that during the past year just over 66,000 views encountered by the NSA redirect rather than disambiguation page compared to the nearly 900,000 that the National Security Agency actually received were flawed and more than 60% of Wikipedia users were misdirected by the redirect, those 60% were looking for non-state actor and over thirty other possible results, that is 31,000 misguided users who would have been better served by this disambiguation page so I have corrected the redirect to favor transparency and reflect the encyclopedic policy of Wikipedia.

Checked the edits too here, one revision said that "too many articles" (where just NSA is used) link to the National Security Agency and refer to it, that is OK the the National Security Agency of the United States Government is first on the list. If most English Wikipedia users were in the United States and there were less valid uses for NSA then the previous redirect would be warranted. Problemsmith (talk) 10:30, 15 December 2017 (UTC)
