Questions
I think that we need to answer the following questions in the order below. Once we make decisions about the first, it reduces the appropriate options for the remaining questions
 * 1) Is the primary topic for "particulate" really "atmospheric particulate matter" as per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC or do we need a broad concept article for particulate Broad concept articles? Is there likely to be enough material to create a broad concept article or will it essentially duplicate the existing articles?
 * 2) Is the most appropriate name for an article on "atmospheric particulate matter" particulate, particulates, particulate matter or atmospheric particulate matter? WP:TITLE If we have a broad concept article at particulate, this article has to be either atmospheric particulate matter or particulate matter.
 * 3) Where do we redirect the remaining pages?
 * 4) Do we need a disambiguation page or can we handle this with hat notes/a broad concept article?
