Typhoon Pepeng (disambiguation)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Creating a disambiguation article with two choices? Is it acceptable? According to this guideline that:
 * "If there are only two topics to which a given title might refer, but neither one is the primary topic, or if both topics are obscure, then it is appropriate to have a disambiguation page at the base name."
 * "If a disambiguation page is needed, but one of the other topics is of particular interest, then it may be appropriate to link to it explicitly as well as linking to the disambiguation page."
 * "If a disambiguation page does not appear to be needed because there are only two topics for the ambiguous title and one of them is the primary topic, but there could reasonably be other topics ambiguous with the title on Wikipedia now or in the future"

You may refer the provided link above. Also, "Pepeng" cannot be used by PAGASA because of the casualty of the 2009 Typhoon Pepeng, so Typhoon Pepeng is a primary topic. An "Redirect" template must be used for it.

 * Delete and use a hatnote to second article on the primary, per WP:TWODABS. Boleyn (talk) 13:07, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:TWODABS. A disambiguation page is merely a navigational device, one that is not needed where this navigation can be provided in a hatnote. bd2412  T 13:07, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - I support the deletion of this page per the reasons given above. I also have to note though that there are several more disambiguation pages, like this where there are currently only two possible options for example Tropical Storm Jangmi where the name is likely to be reused within a few years. I have also wondered for a few years why we cant just use the disambiguation page Amanda rather than Tropical Storm Amanda for example.Jason Rees (talk) 23:55, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
