Talk:Crusade (disambiguation)

message: I'm not convinced that we gain much from keeping Crusaders separate from Crusade.  I don't think they used to be separate; someone just made the Crusaders page intending it to be an only sports disambig some time ago, and now it's mildly confusing.  I say pile Crusade, Crusader, and Crusaders into this one article.
Also, Milton Stanley: No, it was not an accident that I removed the South Park Crusade which was a random constellation referenced in one episode.  Let me ask this: would there be anything to put in an article on it?  Countless sources, fictional and otherwise, have randomly referenced Crusade and the like.  They don't get to be mentioned here either.  By way of comparison, think about how many fictional books, shows, games, and so on reference something called "Excalibur" but use it as something different from the Arthurian legend version.  Detailing such a list would take forever and not be a terribly useful task. SnowFire 17:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Are you suggesting that we remove all fictional references from all disambig pages? That could take a while. South Park is a fairly influential part of US culture (re Emmy nomination). I'd like to thank you, however, for having the maturity to discuss in on this page rather than starting an edit war, as happens on many other pages. I'm open to discussion. --Milton 17:40, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course not.  I've stuck references to fictional items myself into disambig pages.  However, there needs to be a certain standard of relevance met.  If "Crusade" was the name of an important character on South Park (or some other show), for example, there'd be no problem with putting it in.  If it was an episode title or a major location in a series?  Maybe.  But simply existing in one episode is probably not enough, unless that episode was absolutely legendary (Say, the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld or the dead clown from the Mary Tyler Moore show).  Now, I haven't seen that episode of South Park (or much SP at all), but its notability is not obvious from the current description.  I looked at the description of the episode, and it apparently merited a mere one bullet point.  Important fictional characters and places are fine for reference, but one-ofs that appear for an episode are simply beyond counting.  SnowFire 18:23, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Combine Crusaders (disambig) with this? 

message: "Crusaders" is an extremely common title for sports teams, and I don't think it'd be profitable to list every incidence of that here.  Someone interested in Valparaiso sports would go to the Valparaiso article, and the same is true of the innumerable other high schools and universities using "Crusaders."  The list would be gigantic and not terribly useful.
Obviously, this isn't true for major professional teams. SnowFire 05:12, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If it did get out of hand, a separate dab page Crusaders (sports teams) could easily be created. Abtract (talk) 15:42, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
