As seen in the Do we have a project to disambig works?
Ask The Tropers, there are many works pages that seem to need disambigs, by virtue of sharing names and having no differentiation.
This thread is for the discussion and listing of what to do about such pages.
See here for a list of needed disambigs.
The List
- Film.The Lost World
- Series.Utopia
- Series.Kidnapped (2006 NBC Cop Show) (20 wicks)
- Series.The Street
- VideoGame.Star Wars Battlefront
- VideoGame.Star Wars Battlefront II
- WesternAnimation.Fantasia
- WesternAnimation.Max Steel
Similar Issues
- Then there is pages like The Host which is for the Korean film but has a bunch of wicks referring to the adaptation of The Host.
- Ransom: YMMV.Ransom only has Film entries, but Characters.Ransom is trying to be a disambig to Characters.Ransom Film and Characters.Ransom TV... Trivia.Ransom needs to be split.
- Film.Deadlands is conflicting with the Tabletop Game. Maybe move to its redirect, Film.The Dead Lands?
- Series.The Untouchables: It's holding multiple versions in there...

Agreed, the fanfic should be moved to something like Fanfic.Jericho My Little Pony.

That seems like the obvious location.
Well, there's two Chainmail Bikini webcomics...

And the one of Webcomic.Chainmail Bikini...

Disambiguate by... author? I'm not sure.
NaNo 4328 / 50,000
That works; Jason and Shamus.

Hello! I'm not certain if this goes here, but I recently stumbled across two works(?) sharing the title Deadman.
First is ComicBook.Deadman, which redirects to SelfDemonstrating.Deadman, a page describing the DC Comics character.
And then there's the Wild West Film.Deadman (which looks to be miscapitalized; should be Dead Man), the Awesome, Laconic, Trivia, and YMMV subpages all appear to refer to the film, which has no relation whatsoever to the Comics character.

Another comics SD page? We'll need to go to the SD cleanup thread for that.
Will do!
There's two Fanfic.Eye Of The Storm now.
One at hyphenation. The other undisambig-ed...

I'm in favour of Fanfic.Eye Of The Storm Kiseki Ma and Fanfic.Eye Of The Storm Kenya Starflight, anyone else have a different plan?

Eye of the Storm is a common title, so I favour disambiguation by author.

One of the two is a crossover, which typically shouldn't use fandom disambiguation, but the non-crossover can be Fanfic.Eye Of The Storm Star Wars.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
Common title, though. Searching on FFN and AO 3 for "eye of the storm" within the Star Wars category fits brings up like 16 other fics with that exact title.
I'm helping!
Yeah, this is why I default to author's penname for disambiguating fanfic.
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.
Bump...
But to talk about something else... Film.Ten is a redirect to Film.Ten 1979...
I was wondering why it was a disambig, and it took me a while to find Literature.Ten
Which is the only thing that uses that bare name. Thinking about making a Main.Ten so other people aren't gonna wonder about why things are disambig-ed...
The other things, with the undisambigs as redirects, are:
Should Literature be disambig-ed?

This seems like an obvious case for a disambiguation page.
NaNo 4328 / 50,000
Definitely make the Main/ disambiguation page, and not seeing much reason why the Literature/ article should get (relatively) special treatment at staying where it is.

Very Spooky
We have five different works named Downfall, and the pages are a mess. There’s Fanfic.Downfall, Film.Downfall, Manga.Downfall, Series.Downfall, and VideoGame.Downfall. There’s lots of subpage collision, and some subpages are individually disambiguated between works, such as YMMV.Downfall.
back lol

The first obvious move to make is to Fanfic.Downfall Bleach.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
And Film.Downfall to Film.Downfall 2004, considering there are other films named Downfall (but none with pages).
Friends forevermore
I can't argue against that. When were the other Downfalls (with pages) released?

Let's see… 2017 for the manga, 2010 for the series, 2009 for the video game. And the other Downfall films are 1923 and 1997.

Would it make sense to disambiguate everything (except the fanfic) by year?

I'd agree with that.

The latter is a fan work, so the former takes precedence. (The fanfic should definitely be moved, and the series definitely shouldn't be moved at this time.)
