Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page Starer. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should: Thank you. Chrissymad ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  03:48, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
 * Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
 * Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
 * Only add a " red link " if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
 * Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
 * Do not insert external links or references

Chrissymad: Thank you for your explanation of your edits to the Starer page. Having only started editing recently, I appreciate the clarification. However, for the following reasons, I don't think the reversion to a previous revision is justified:
 * If I understand correctly, the Starer article uses Template:Surname and claims that the surname itself is of Jewish origin; but not that all people with the surname are Jewish.
 * Similarly, it claims that the surname is Kohenitic; again this applies to the surname itself and not necessarily to each person with that surname. Indeed, many people with that surname may be neither Jewish nor Kohens.

Therefore, without understanding the intricacies of disambiguation pages, it would seem logical that the page should justify both of these claims.

Also, by reverting to a previous version, some important changes have been lost. For example, the inclusion of the Hebrew spelling of the name has been lost. Also, the unjustified claim that the name is German has been restored.

For these reasons, I have reverted to my previous revision.
