The page said the vessels were named after the Canadian city of Toronto, but York, Upper Canada wasn't renamed Toronto until 1834 -- well after the launch of the first two vessels. So I removed the anachronous claim. Geo Swan (talk) 00:53, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

explanation

Links on disambiguation page entries are not supposed to be piped. I fixed that. One of the entries was a red link, that was not used in any article. I searched for references about the HMS Toronto (1813), and I couldn't find any. I commented this entry out, as each entry is supposed to have at least one blue link -- either to an article on the topic, or to another article that has a legitimate redlink to the non-existent article on the topic.

Thanks Geo, but this is not a disambiguation page, this is a WP:SETINDEX one, that is meant to be formatted differently. I've restored the formatting. Benea (talk) 10:59, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
