Talk:Westboro, Ottawa

message: *I removed the reference to the Citywide (Baptist) Church in the disambiguation link at the top of the article.  A disambiguation link shouldn't be a paragraph long, and disambiguation is only required where there is a risk of confusion.  I find it hard to believe that anyone would mistake a reference to the "Westboro Baptist Church ... in Topeka, Kansas" to a church in Ottawa.  I also do not believe that we should be disambiguating terms that are only found in the disambiguation link itself -- the disambiguation link should relate to the article, and shouldn't constitute a quasi-article itself.  I say all this as much as I understand Citywide's desire to go to great lengths to distance itself from the Westboro Baptist Church in Kansas.Frankly, it's not even clear to me that we need to disambiguate Westboro and Westboro Baptist Church in the first place.

replies: text: *Response.  Vegaswikian, you're probably thinking that Westboro is a city; it's not.  The proposed name already exists as a redirect: Westboro (Ottawa) and is consistent with the other Ottawa neighborhoods listed in List of Ottawa neighbourhoods, including Manor Park (Ottawa), Overbrook (Ottawa), Alta Vista (Ottawa), Riverview (Ottawa), Britannia (Ottawa), Lincoln Heights (Ottawa), Mechanicsville (Ottawa), Whitehaven (Ottawa), and so on. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 23:58, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

text: **Yea, I'm becoming more opposed to the entire place naming convention since it is so confusingin my opinion.  I understand that this proposal will pass and that's fine.  Vegaswikian 06:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

message: *Oppose.  The proposal does not follow the Naming convention for Canada.  Westboro, Ontario which follows the naming convention would be OK. Vegaswikian 22:18, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
