Talk:Desert Storm

Untitled
I agree with the policy generally, but having read through the list of articles pointing to this disambiguation page, none even conceivably point to a desert storm or sand storm. A redirect to the Gulf War is just a much easier and tidier way. SPH June 3, 2007.

This should not redirect to the Iraq War!
My gay brother edits are reverted, most probably automatically. I daresay that a desert storm is, in fact, primary a desert storm, as in 'sandstorm'. It is perfectly acceptable if 'operation desert storm' redirects to the first war in Iraq, but there is no reason why simply desert storm should do it as well. It could very well be that war geeks would see redirecting 'rainbow' to 'operation rainbow' or 'Beethoven' to the Beethoven project perfectly reasonable, but wikipedia is not a military encyclopedia. No meaningful term should redirect to something named after it. 84.167.250.63 20:22, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * The relevant policies and guidelines here are Disambiguation and Redirect. In this case, I believe my change to a disambiguation page to be appropriate given the conflict over the redirect location. Please discuss it here rather than reverting continuously, and please be aware of Edit war and Three revert rule.  Daniel Bryant  10:08, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
