Backyard (disambiguation)

This is an improper use of a disambiguation page. The articles linked to on the page aren't ambiguous. It is simply a list of all the pages on Wikipedia that include the word "Backyard"--Backyard Blitz, Backyard astronomy, etc. Fisheriesmgmt (talk) 06:33, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator on 26 February 2015. PamD has significantly reformatted the article to meet disambiguation guidelines. Fisheriesmgmt (talk) 15:22, 26 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep in new form: I have stripped out the partial title matches, redirected The Backyard to here (two of its three entries were already duplicated on this page), added useful catchall links to "See also"; I think Back Yard Recordings is justified here - see its article/logo. I suggest that the joint dab page for with and without "The" is better here at the basename because then we can include the useful See also links. Pam  D  09:39, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi! Thanks so much for making these changes to Backyard (disambiguation). I think this is a much better form for this page and I really appreciate your taking the time to modify the page to meet disambiguation guidelines. I'm going to withdraw my deletion nomination because I think the page is now a fine example of what a disambiguation page should look like and the function it should serve.
