The page only lists WP:Partial title matches, and I'm not sure any of them would be simply called "Schwester". The "People" section is especially inadequate for a disambiguation page, as the first entry is similar to listing all rappers starting with "lil" on a dab page for that, while the other one is like doing so with all nurses under "nurse". As a general rule for foreign-language redirects, I think it's fair to say that if the topic is a common noun, PTMs are probably too generic if they are such with the English translation.

1234qwer1234qwer4 We do list every rapper starting with "lil", see
Lil#Use as a short form of "little". I don't see how this is any different to a page including people's surnames or first names (both of which by definition are partial matches). And
Schwester Selma is her common name, in same way we have
Mother Theresa.

- @ Joseph2302: Wow, that surprised me as the word is only used as an attribute, and none of those rappers would be simply called "Lil". I also think the list should be removed. "Schwester" is not a first name, Mother Theresa is not listed under Mother (disambiguation) either. 1234qwer1234qwer4 ( talk) 12:09, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. I agree with the nominator. This page actively inhibits Search. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 07:47, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
