The purpose of disambiguation pages are to fork a common term toward relevant, existing articles. Red links are allowed on disambiguation pages under two major conditions. The first is that the entry must link somewhere (the red link does not count), second the article linked must discuss the entry. In this case any blue link in the Western High School for Las Vegas, Nevada MUST contain some information about the Las Vegas, Nevada Western High School. Otherwise the link will continue, and rightly so, to be removed. Anyone confused over this established guideline should click the above link to the WikiProject for disambiguations. There you will find many references and style links on how to properly format a DAB according to current consensus. æron phone home 15:09, 20 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
- You are mistaken. See MOS:DABRL. The Disambiguation Wikiproject's internal guidelines do not supersede the Manual of Style. Three articles link to the Western High School (Las Vegas, Nevada) redlink, so it should be included as long as the city or some other word is blue-linked. Such as:
- Which is formatted the same as the other entries on the page. Strikehold (talk) 06:49, 1 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
- That isn't exactly the best way to format a DAB entry, if other DABs do that they should be marked for cleanup. And the article Las Vegas, Nevada has no referenced information pertaining to Western High School, a requirement according to the MOS you linked. A thousand articles could red link to it, that doesn't earn it a DAB entry, which MUST link somewhere relating to the entry. It only means people want the article to be created. Why does no one actually try and write the article? æronphonehome 14:51, 1 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
