Frequently asked questions
Why is this not an article about
New York State? or about
New York City?
This topic has been discussed many times, until
community consensus was finally achieved in July 2017. In a nutshell, the term "New York" is often understood as referring to New York City, and often as referring to New York State. Both of these uses are far more frequent to other meanings, however neither the city nor the state are overwhelmingly dominant. For lack of a
primary topic, the disambiguation page allows readers to decide where to go. Links to
New York are automatically flagged so that their author or a dab volunteer can select the intended destination. More details at the
Talk:New York/July 2016 move request which failed to reach consensus, and at the
July 2017 move request which was adopted. |

There is a song by Beyonce, New York. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:44B8:802:1100:BD39:BF3D:4E16:FEF0 ( talk) 17:40, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
There once, until 1898, was a city with this name - a pretty big and important city. WP has no article on "New York, New York". Manhattan isn't it, it's a geographical name, and New York County isn't it. There isn't even a subheading of an article on "New York, New York". And I thought I was making a tiny contribution by adding here that "New York" could be a reference to that former city. But @ Bkonrad: took it right out.

New York → New York (disambiguation) – There was a large move request in 2017 that voted in the move of the title. However, New York should be the location of the article of the state, and not the disambig. I even have no idea why such consensus was enacted? The title needs to be reviewed.
