Here is another way disambiguation can require disambiguation: Bright (Bright (American band) album) versus Bright (Bright (Japanese band) album). PrimeHunter ( talk) 00:55, 23 August 2017 (UTC) reply

Agreed. This page is the essence of Wikipedia. Disambiguation pages are as well known and frequently encountered as Citation needed but only this page can be applied to itself.
I'm glad I found this page. I'll come back to it from time to time and marvel at the beauty of it's existence. Wantnot ( talk) 16:58, 5 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Although I agree with the sentiment of what you say in essence, I'm wondering whether this whole page should be renamed "Disambiguization" just to disambiguate? 88.108.199.27 ( talk) 01:30, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply
Search throws up a few uses of "disambiguization", but it seems to be a typo and is certainly not a common name for the topic. Certes ( talk) 12:20, 21 December 2022 (UTC) reply

Absolutely perfect name for a page. TarantulaTM ( speak with me) ( my legacy) 22:10, 27 July 2023 (UTC) reply
Agree. It is amazing. InTheAstronomy32 ( talk) 00:46, 25 January 2024 (UTC) reply

It's so meta. It's right, but also confusing. Stevebroshar ( talk) 13:57, 28 May 2024 (UTC) reply

The angler fish

When the male angler fish merges its body into the female angler fish, this process is known as disambiguation.

Consequently disambiguation means the opposite of what it usually means here, it's two things becoming one, instead of two things being distinguished from one another. 108.20.1.45 ( talk) 16:40, 19 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Does a reliable source document the word being used in this sense? If so then it could be added to Anglerfish#Reproduction, giving it a WP:DABMENTION which would make it eligible for inclusion on this page. Certes ( talk) 19:18, 19 August 2023 (UTC) reply
As far as I can tell, no reliable source has said anything about "disambiguation" in anglerfish, besides encyclopedic sites in the general sense of disambiguation in Wikipedia. Frostcrush Valari ( talk) 19:46, 8 November 2023 (UTC) reply
