Talk:Elsan

Redirect needs to be changed
Hi User:Kkj11210, I don't think Elsan should redirect to portable toilet as it can mean many different things, e.g. simply be a detergent (see results for a Google Images search on Elsan). I suggest to delete the page Elsan or to set up a disambiguation page. EvMsmile (talk) 02:28, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Either option sounds fine; I was reacting to the blanking of the page so feel free to change it to a disamb or list it on RFD.  KJ  Discuss? 09:51, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
 * User:Carbon Caryatid, what do you reckon - disamb or deletion? EvMsmile (talk) 04:01, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Not deletion. I have yet to find the correct place within Wikipedia to find out how many readers search for a given term, but I'm willing to bet that for Elsan N > 0, so we should reward their search with a useful result. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 10:17, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, can you set up a simple disamb page then? For me the term Elsan is entirely new. Going by Google images, it can be a type of bucket toilet or a cleaning detergent and probably other things as well? EvMsmile (talk) 11:25, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * My preferred solution would be to re-direct searches for "Elsan" to the correct section of portable toilet, and to add a sentence along the lines of: "Elsan may also refer to other products of that company, notably the chemicals used in holding tanks."

 * OK, please do so (but where would you add that sentence?)EvMsmile (talk) 12:27, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
