NDS (filter log) (user filter log)

Description

I was reorganizing NDS into sections, as the disambig page is currently not sectioned nor is it alphasorted. Obviously there is no lead section on a disambig page, the entire page is not an intro section

Done and a change to the filter may be needed. The anon may he right that disambiguation pages should be excluded from this filter. Animal lover |666| 05:39, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Probably easiest to do this by checking for {{Disambiguation. Nobody (talk) 05:13, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are multiple disambiguation notice templates, and redirects to them. ie. {{letter–number combination disambiguation}} / {{numberdis}} / {{geodis}} / {{Dab}} / {{disambig}} / ... shown at Category:Disambiguation message boxes -- 64.229.88.34 (talk) 07:41, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It may make the most sense, from the benefit/cost prospective, to list the more common ones and ignore the less common ones. Animal lover |666| 07:45, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's possible to search for hidden cats so looking for Category:All article disambiguation pages should work. Nobody (talk) 08:00, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In 2013, Ian De Beer directed a team of street artists to spray-paint a graffiti tribute mural in the style of Spain Rodriguez on a parking lot wall of a convenience store at Allen and College streets, in the Allentown neighborhood, inspired by a Spain Rodriguez comic about a fight he got into at a bar, across the street from the mural.
