Talk:Jack Black (disambiguation)

Recovering Jack Black from Rdr-to-Dab-page status
_ _ The idea of making all of WP's Jack Black lks lead to a Dab page may not have been a bad one, when done back in 2005 Feb. That editor may even have done due diligence: i'm not going to research how few (or many) Jack Black lks then existing were intended for Jack Black (actor). At this point, however it would clearly be what we call A Bad Decision to leave it that way: There are something like 80 lks intended for the actor/musician, and just short of 50 of them are Jack Black lks that go to the Dab. Exactly one was intended for Jack Black (author), and has now been byp'd to that page. The three small-time Jack Blacks now have 1, 2, and 3 lks, respectively, to them from running text in articles (and one among the 3 for Jack Black (author) is probably unjustified at least as it stands). _ _ Our users deserve to get to the actor/musician from those 50 w/o hitting the Dab. Someone w/ a bot will sooner or later see to that, but more of them will keep coming, so the need is continual. (And using the bot is much more work unless Jack Black rdr's to him.) Once the 50 get done, it becomes managable routine maintenance to check What links to  Jack Black, and manually  byp three or a dozen new ones, and in the meantime, the readers don't notice the dab. --Jerzy·t 20:55, 2005 August 11 (UTC)
