Lianna (on Mastodon)

If I had my own band, I'd name it after an already disambiguated article, just to make their life harder.

Oh, you went to the Wikipedia page "Polymorphism (computer science)"? Well, do you mean "Polymorphism (computer science) (German band)" or "Polymorphism (computer science) (computer science)"?

In other words, my new band Polymorphism (computer science) is going to launch its first EP soon.

@lianna You reminded me of en-wp.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_on immediately. Also we’d probably just shorten the band name, or at worst, use a hatnote “This page is for the computer science field. For the confusingly named band, see [_]”

en-wp.orgWikipedia:No one cares about your garage band - Wikipedia

@lianna god this thing is so much more beautifully brutal then I remembered

@PixDeVl @lianna I think that, as a presumed WP editor, you deserve:

*than

I enjoyed reading that article though 😊

@lianna there's two albums called (disambiguation) on Wikipedia Disambiguation (disambiguation), but the ones i know, (disambiguation) and disambiguation in parentheses (by Jan Misali) seemingly don't meet the notability reqs

@lianna self titled? Polymorphism (computer science) (German band) (Polymorphism (computer science) (German band) Album)

@april sure
i'll contribute the bunny noises

@lianna It’s vital that the EP be eponymous!

@lianna you know about en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%98_( ?
"This article is about the Underoath album. For other uses of the symbol Ø, see Ø (disambiguation)."

@lianna@mastodon.gamedev.place that's kind of a banger of a name tbh, 10/10 would even release an LP under that name...

@lianna Waiting for the next NetherRealms Mortal Kombat game called "Mortal Kombat (1992 video game)" because they haven't screwed over people searching for the original arcade game enough.
