Discussion about page format
[edit](previously listed under topic "Taylor County" at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Disambiguation)
Someone recently tabulated it. While it looks nice, it is not like most other county dab pages. Also, by the way I interpret WP:MOSDAB, it has too much information for a dab page. If nothing else, its a maintenance issue. Please comment. Thanks. --Tesscass (talk) 21:32, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- I've tagged it for cleanup (would normally do a tweak, but am unsure on how to deal with such a strange dab). Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 02:21, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages)#Individual entries is pretty clear on this. The table might be cute for Comparison of U.S. counties named Taylor, but not for a dab page. Shame about all the work that went into it. --AndrewHowse (talk) 03:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- See also WT:MOSDAB#Tables within dab pages. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:19, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- Perhaps it should no longer be classed as a dab page but as a type of list. The problem with that, though, is that it could potentially be criticized for being an indiscriminate list. Therefore, preservation of content might be pursued under an "origin of name" type article, requiring re-focusing on etymology and provision of citation support for the name origins. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 13:42, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

- I can envision this page be preserved as a disambiguation page with a link to a tabulated comparison page. Then if someone wants to do the same for all the 60 or more most common U.S. county names, they may. --Tesscass (talk) 16:15, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
