- This was fixed a while ago, but it appears there have been other issues with WP:INTDABLINK(intentional disambiguation links), so I thought I'd put a more thorough explanation here. Follow that link for the complete guideline, but the pertinent part is as follows:
- Links to disambiguation pages from mainspace are typically errors. In order to find and fix those errors, disambiguators generate a wide array of reports of links needing to be checked and fixed. Because these reports can not distinguish instances where an editor has made such a link with the intent to point to the disambiguation page, the community has adopted the procedure of rerouting all intentional disambiguation links in mainspace through "Foo (disambiguation)" redirects. This makes it clear that such links are intended to point to the disambiguation page.
- For example:
- On a disambiguation page, an intentional link to another disambiguation page that does not contain "(disambiguation)" in the title:
- Incorrect: [[Springfield]]
- Incorrect: [[Springfield (disambiguation)|Springfield]]
- Correct: [[Springfield (disambiguation)]]
- On a disambiguation page, an intentional link to another disambiguation page that does not contain "(disambiguation)" in the title:

Cleanup
Before adding an entry, please familiarise yourself with
