Telegraph (non-verbal communication)

Removal of Non-Dab'g entries
The items on the accompanying Dab page should be topic names that might had articles named "Telegraph". It is not meant for topics such as equipment associated with telegraphy: Nor is it meant for other telegraphy-related articles that reasonable users would not expect to find titled "Telegraph": On the other hand, some effort went into collecting these two lists of related articles, and someone may find them useful other than as misguided contribs to the Dab. --Jerzy•t 06:22, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
