Talk:Dick Clarke

Dick Clarke and Dick Clark are easily mistyped or mistaken for each other and should in my opinion therefore share the same disambiguation page.

I intended to replace the redirect & disambiguation structure

Dick Clark--+-->Dick Clarke-------------->Richard Clarke
            +-->Dick Clark (entertainer) 
            +-->Dick Clark (Senator) 

with the structure

Dick Clarke----->Dick Clark--+-->Richard Clarke
                             +-->Dick Clark (entertainer) 
                             +-->Dick Clark (Senator)

but I made a typing error and instead created

 Dick Clarke----->Dick Clark--+-->Dick Clarke
                              +-->Dick Clark (entertainer) 
                              +-->Dick Clark (Senator)

This error was pointed out to me by Jerzy (thank you) and I have now restructured the pages to match the second structure above. EdH 20:04, Jun 26, 2004 (UTC)

Thanks, Ed, now that you describe it, i can see how i could have done that myself, and have confidently failed to check my work.

BTW, i admire

• your clear exposition of the situation (it's under GFDL, so there's no point agonizing about whether it's an idea or the expression of an idea, so i will steal it someday without hesitation!) and
• your clean and effective structure for solving the underlying problem, which is substantially better than what i could come up with.
