Trimming

[edit]

I am going by Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages), and by my feeling that the target article titles have exactly the keywords necessary to guide the reader. — Pekinensis 23:29, 29 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

new additions?

[edit]

The new additions to this dab page seem like they should be pointing to the "poi (juggling)" article. Any reason for this apparent redundancy? adamrice 16:40, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find any articles that had this content in them. I was actually planning to write them soon. However, I will instead change at least one of the links to point at the Poi (juggling) page. I am unsure what to do about the other. Should it be removed? -- Tuvok^Talk|Desk|Contribs  23:42, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's a judgment call. IMO, poi-the-object and poi-the-activity do not need separate articles (to be honest, I've never heard anyone refer to the activity as "poi"). adamrice 13:54, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I got a CD straight from New Zealand that said, as part of its title, "20 Hakas and Pois". -- Tuvok^Talk|Desk|Contribs  19:50, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Currently the Poi (performance art) and Poi (juggling) link to the same page, this seems redundant. One of them should be removed. Thepillow (talk) 08:55, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

POI vs Poi

[edit]

Don't see the point of separate disambiguation pages for these and suggest a merger of the two pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.178.4.10 (talk) 12:41, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A tad sorry, anon, that no one else is compulsive enuf to take you seriously enuf to give you a reply. "POI" must refer to an acronym or other similar coding scheme rather than a word, while both poi and "Poi" are formal words, the units of natural languages. As I've never noticed anyone raising such a question (on WP or elsewhere), you probabably should ask a more precise question, or ask such questions in a forum where someone will rise to the bait by offering a more direct answer. Cheers!
