 * Delete: per nom. I also question whether the SPA who created this -- whose contributions seem to be in creating these disambiguation pages for several "Chinatowns" around the United States, and which likewise bear examination -- has any idea what he's talking about.  In this particular case, for instance, I'm a native and longtime resident of Quincy and have lived in Malden, and neither city has a "Chinatown" -- they have a relatively high percentage of Chinese immigrants, but no concentrated district of Chinese businesses   Ravenswing   17:11, 31 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete This is not a proper disambiguation page. It lists two articles that are properly about the subject, namely Chinatown, Boston and Chinatown (MBTA station), but they do not need disambiguation. The other items listed are not in any way disambiguations of "Chinatown, Boston". In addition, it was completely inappropriate for the user to put the "Chinatowns" template on a DAB page. Somebody (somebody who is more versed in DAB policy than I am) please explain things to this new user, because they have created a half dozen of these inappropriate DAB pages about various Chinatowns. --MelanieN (talk) 03:30, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
