Correct Rcat tag
@Wbm1058: I used R from incorrect name because this is the incorrect name for the article title, since the article apparently needs disambiguation. What RCat would you use? voorts (talk/contributions) 19:50, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Usual conventions suggest that East Kilbride and Strathaven (UK Parliament constituency) should be an R from unnecessary disambiguation redirecting to East Kilbride and Strathaven, which is an unambiguous topic not requiring disambiguation. But Category:Proposed constituencies of the Parliament of the United Kingdom points to a local naming convention that requires disambiguation. I don't know quite what to make of this local convention that goes against the norm. R to required disambiguation? R to necessary disambiguation? R to disambiguation by convention? Would be interested in reading any discussions about this matter. – wbm1058 (talk) 20:43, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Apparently a hyperspecific naming convention requires the use of "(UK Parliament constituency)", so I think R from incorrect name is correct. I'm going to pose the question of the appropriate category on the naming convention talk page. voorts (talk/contributions) 21:29, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I see, Naming conventions (UK Parliament constituencies). – wbm1058 (talk) 21:39, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I've posed the question of the appropriate category on the talk page and pinged, who drafted the guideline, to see if she knows the answer. voorts (talk/contributions) 21:43, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I just made this edit swapping out R from short name for R from less specific name. The reason I didn't retain R from short name is because it didn't seem to me that the title without its parenthetical qualifier should be considered a short name of the fully-qualified title, due to the following: • the actual title minus the qualifier is the same in both instances; and

• this doesn't seem (to me) to be a case where the fully-qualified title would also be used generally to refer to the subject of the article itself - (UK parliamentary constituency) is (in my mind) only a descriptor, not an extension of the article subject's name itself.

 * Thanks @A smart kitten. I think we had come to a consensus that that was the most appropriate option; I'm not sure why it wasn't implemented. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:53, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
