Talk:Chestnut (horse)

Disambig

 * Of the 33 incoming mainspace links to this page name, the majority intend the coat color, not the callosity. --Una Smith (talk) 05:57, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
 * For a change, I actually agree with you on this one. Montanabw (talk) 02:15, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Cool. The underlying cause of confusion, I think, is the parenthetical "(horse)" used to mean any of three things:  individual horse, horse breed, and horse anatomy.  --Una Smith (talk) 02:24, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The parenthetical naming and the policies governing them are one of those wikipedia conventions that can be confusing. But oh well.  This one works.  Montanabw (talk) 05:05, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Was content fork, so redirected. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:01, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

The reason I split off these as a separate dab is to enable batch repair of incoming links. But I can work with the current arrangement. Here is how. To repair incoming links to this redirect, I temporarily made it redirect to Chestnut (coat), then used a robot tool to first change all incoming links intending the coat color, leaving the others alone. Then I repaired the remaining incoming links intending the callus. It is efficient to repair links in batch mode. --Una Smith (talk) 18:24, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
