Communist terrorism (disambiguation)
"This disambiguation page lists articles associated with the same title."

However none of the articles within actually share the same title. Tentontunic (talk) 10:28, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete DABs are used to prevent confusion, not to deliberately add to confusion. There is one, and only one, article with that name, so a DAB makes no sense. WP does not use DABs to include "all possibly related articles" on any topic that I have found.   The WP guidelines states: Disambiguation is required whenever, for a given word or phrase on which a reader might search, there is more than one existing Wikipedia article to which that word or phrase might be expected to lead. Which is not the case here.  Further: There is no need to add disambiguation links to a page whose name already clearly distinguishes itself from the generic term. And again, this applies here.  Further: A disambiguation page is not a search index.  The use here is precisely that of a "search index."   The purpose of a disambiguation page is to give a user who has typed an ambiguous term into the search box a list of articles that are likely to be what he or she is looking for.  But the term at issue is found as a title for one, and only one, article.  Where a DAB page violates the disambiguation guideline on not just one, but on four specific points, it ceases to be a proper disambiguation page. Collect (talk) 12:49, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
