Buffalo hunting (disambiguation)

Unnecessary disambiguation page; two of the three pages linked to do not exist MelanieN (talk) 16:38, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Maybe this should have been PRODded, but I don't know how to do that! --MelanieN (talk) 16:56, 1 February 2010 (UTC)MelanieN
 * Just insert  at the top of the article, and you're done. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 22:23, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. WP:DISAM says that we only need disambiguation pages if multiple articles exist. Seeing as they are redlinks, this is not needed. The page can be recreated if the other articles are created.  Jujutacular  T · C 17:18, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Even if articles were to be created for the redlinks, there is no reason why their content should not be merged to the existing article, Buffalo hunting. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 22:22, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Hunting a Cape Buffalo is very different from hunting a North American Bison. The two types of hunting would not belong in the same article. Whether you want to DAB to two redlinks is another story.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 02:22, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: there actually is no article on "Buffalo hunting"; that search term redirects to the article "Bison hunting". And there are no articles on hunting Cape buffalo or water buffalo. So there really is no ambiguity here. --MelanieN (talk) 03:06, 2 February 2010 (UTC)Melanie
 * Comment Well, then...slap me twice and call me a bastard. OK, while "Bison hunting" is "more technically correct", the common term is "Buffalo hunting".  Maybe the creator of the dab link is planning on adding the other 2?    Regardless, Bison hunting is closer to hunting Musk ox, dumb perimeter animals that you can wipe out the whole herd by starting in the center and moving out.  Cape Buffalo is a real dangerous game, perhaps the most dangerous of the big 5 in Africa.  I know nothing about the hunting of the Asian WB.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 01:11, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
