Talk:Follies (disambiguation)

Removed entries
Lists of titles like the following are not Dabs, but impediments to a Dab's reason for existence. I often move such pages to a title that distinguishes them from a Dab (a navigational page for the benefit of users who type the Dab's title, expecting reasonably to go straight to the page on a topic they have in mind), then build a real Dab from scratch at that title. In this case, i can't imagine a use for an alphabetical list of things with "follies" in their names (and the alpha order clearly indicates the priority it simply to save typing for users who already know the real title, not for legitimate Dab users. If you can supply a few examples of Web pages that use "Follies" or "the Follies" as the name of one of the following, with having already specified the full name (or doing so before the end of the paragraph), do so in a signed msg on this talk page, add your example back, and make reference to this talk page in the edit summary, so that it doesn't just get reverted on the understanding that you obviously don't understand what a Dab is -- as was the case with the compiler of this list.
