Blair House (disambiguation)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

First of all, I'm not sure if this even belongs at AFD. I couldn't find anything as far as policies or guidelines go about nominating disambiguation pages for deletion, and was on the fence about whether to list here or on MFD, but since dab pages technically live in mainspace, I placed it here.

That said, I nominate this article for deletion because it is unnecessary. There are currently two "Blair House" articles - one for Washington DC, which takes the primary topic, and one in Montgomery, Ohio that takes a parenthetical in its title. The main topic has a direct link to the other as a hatnote, and the second topic is already unambiguous. Thus this dab page is quite unnecessary, and ripe for deletion.

 * Comment. My understanding is that NRHP generally does not do hatnotes. WP:MOSDAB says that 2-article dab pages are unnecessary but harmless. • Gene93k (talk) 21:26, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete The Blair House is a famous Washington landmark. I don't even know where Montgomery, Ohio is, nor do I particularly care that it has a "Blair House" on the National Register of Historic Places.  There is no ambiguity to be resolved here.  Mandsford (talk) 00:41, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong keep such figures as the former British prime minister tony blair are believed to live in buildings called houses. --Balloholic (talk) 01:24, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * And if it ain't 10 Downing Street, it probably ain't notable. Mandsford (talk) 02:43, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Nothing has been made to show that anything other than 10 Downing Street is notable as a residence of Tony Blair's.  SchuminWeb (Talk) 04:04, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Hatnote on Blair House suffices. This dab page, as Gene93k noted, is unnecessary but harmless. If they are nominated for deletion, then they should be deleted. -- JHunterJ (talk) 15:34, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. The hatnotes are sufficient. - Mgm|(talk) 19:19, 27 December 2008 (UTC)
