Talk:Queen's College

Disambiguation page or SIA?

@TSventon: your recent edit had the effect of reverting my reclassification of this page from a disambiguation page to an SIA. "A disambiguation page is a non-article page that lists and links to encyclopedia articles covering topics that could have had the same title" (WP:DPAGE). "A set index article (SIA) is a list article about a set of items of a specific type that also share the same (or similar) name" (WP:SIA). If this page is a disambiguation page there is guidance (MOS:DAB) that prevents entries that are redlinks with no mention in an article: this page has 3 such entries. It also discourages superfluous detail. In my view the page is better as an SIA (a list of colleges called Queen's). It can't be both: which do you want.

@Shhhnotsoloud: I reclassified the page to be consistent with other disambiguation pages in Category:Educational institution disambiguation pages such as King's College. Are there any educational institution lists in Category:Set indices? Two of the red links are mentioned in other articles: Queen's College, Columbo in Royal College, Colombo#History and Queen's College, North Adelaide in North Adelaide#Education. I couldn't find any mention of Queen's College, Edinburgh online: am I missing something? TSventon (talk) 16:30, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

@TSventon: I don't think you're missing anything. I'll clean it up as a disambiguation page. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:38, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, I have to admit that I hadn't met SIAs before. A lot of them seem almost identical to DAB's. TSventon (talk) 16:56, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
