This is the page one gets when typing "specter" into the search box; why doesn't this direct anywhere on the page the senator Arlen Specter

This page seems to simply copy information already included in the page Specter (creature). It should be merged, with a link at the top to the disambiguation page. Egpetersen 15:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

There are so many things that are called spectre that I think the main page for spectre should be a link archive.

Redirect?
Is there any reason this page should NOT redirect to Spectre (disambiguation)? Mhcole mt 02:34, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) REDIRECT Spectre (disambiguation)

Clean up
I've moved and deleted lots of things which were on this page and which already appeared elsewhere. I think this page should be merged with Ghost with a link to Spectre (disambiguation). Is the In pop culture info worth keeping? Or can someone move it to some other more relevant page. Mighty Antar 10:44, 5 July 2007 (UTC) Decided In pop culture could move to Spectre (disambiguation).

Merging now
I'm merging this article with Ghost. Nobody is willing to expand it and, to be honest, I don't know what the difference between a spectre and a ghost would be anyway. The dictionaries, encyclopaedias, etc. that I've looked at all list them as synonyms.Nicholas A.

Since this is a disambiguation page is it appropriate to have sounds-the-same names in the people section? There is already a different spelling with Alren Specter. Arbalest Mike (talk) 22:31, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
