My first concern at seeing this is that it is repeating (and altering?) some of the ideas/guidelines found elsewhere (like WP:MOSDAB). It would be better to reference these through links (unless you are proposing REPLACING those pages with this one, which I don't think is the plan). Saying that, I do think there might be a place in Wikipedia space for further guidance on some of the more contentious aspects of dab pages. Something like User:Jwy/Primary Topics: Why and Which, which I've intended as a guidance essay rather than a guideline. --John ( User:Jwy/ talk) 17:25, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
I think most discussions of the type suggested should take place on the appropriate article/dab page talk pages and that this should be an escalation path after significant attempts at consensus elsewhere have failed. --John ( User:Jwy/ talk) 17:25, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
We should outline the difference between a disambig page and other oft-confused formats such as the set index articles (like Dodge Charger), and the occasional general topic article disguised as a disambig (like High priest). bd2412 T 04:08, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
The previous reasons not to make a topic primary were in contradiction of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, so I have placed them correctly under reasons to make a topic primary. -- JHunterJ ( talk) 15:06, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
This page should not be speedy deleted as an attack or a negative unsourced biography of a living person, because it does not disparage (or even mention) any living person; it is a proposal in project space, and should at least be preserved for historical value. -- bd2412 T 23:58, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
