Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Trepanation (disambiguation)
The concept of inclusion criteria, in the traditional sense, as applied to articles in mainspace, does not apply to DABS.  If there is more than one article that a reader could be looking for when searching a certain title or keyword, a DAB can provide a quick summary of each article to aid in navigation.  This DAB does not create confusion for readers where only one article is a reasonable target for the keyword, and therefore is useful.  Hatnotes alone cannot replace the usefulness of a dab, which can explain in adequate detail what each article covers.  This was adequaely explained to the nom by 2 other editors when nom tried to CSD and then to PROD the page.  Note that nom then culled much of the contents of the DAB in what looked like an effort to subsequently argue that it was not substantial or useful; under the misguided concept that the contents should not be on this DAB because they were already on anther DAB.  Nom seems to at least partially miss the point of DABS, and should probably study up on them at ,  and wikiproject disambiguation before attempting to cull/delete others
