NO! That's just not true. "Pawn" takes you to a disambiguation page. You chose a route from that to get to the "Magnetic Scrolls" game. What's "Prawn" supposed to do? > Wikipedia is very good, but it is the problem that it is a very general > encyclopedia, it is sometimes hard to find the page relating to a topic > which has the same name as another better known topic. I have never found it hard. If the information is there, disambiguations get you there. Once in a specialist area, direct links within those pages take you to the directly related stuff, with links back to disambiguations where relevant. It works. It works, if you put the information there. (And Tony, I always pronounce it Wi-ki-pe-di-op-hi-li-ac". I invented the word. I can define the "correct" way to pronounce it!
