I'm pretty sure ambiguation is not a word, but what are the guidelines on removing disambiguation information from names/labels of items. Usually this disambiguation information was added to a Wikipedia article name to enforce their uniqueness requirements, but Wikidata has no such need and the presence of the information makes it very difficult to construct things like placename hierarchies which don't look clumsy/weird.
It appears that, in general, disambiguation text has been removed from names, but this isn't always the case. Is it safe/recommended to clean up those that have been missed? Here are some examples that I've collected: Linden Park, Massachusetts https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6552338 boulevard carnot cannes https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2921787 Newton Lower Falls, Massachusetts https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7020301 Harrington House (Weston, Massachusetts) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14715508 Thomas Fleming House (Sherborn, Massachusetts) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14715881 Peabody, Cambridge, Massachusetts https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7157211 Is the standard the "natural" name or the invented name that Wikpedians came up with?
