This isn't a main space page, it's a disambiguation. Also, precedent. --Thadeous Oakley 21:47, 3 October 2010 (BST)

That's hardly an apt likening, given that the only internal link on that was to a userspace, so it was a circumventing of the no-user-redirects rule (which I think is what you're confusing this with, along with the moving of user pages like this one), as the other links were outward to Wikipedia only. This one lists nanners alongside other Banana-based pages, helping to find him with a search (lord knows it took me forever to realise it was him). And disambigs are in the main space, since they're not listed under any other namespace - anything without a prefix like Template:, User:, etc, is main space, even disambigs. 21:55, 3 October 2010 (BST)

A disambiguation is basically an overview of multiple redirects under the same name. We never redirect to users. I'm highly positive I'm in the right here but I'll ask someone else. --Thadeous Oakley 22:03, 3 October 2010 (BST)

Don't know what you meant by the disambig and mainspace because they aren't mutually exclusive :/ But I don't think there's anything wrong with this disambig page, it's really funny. but I'd take Surgeon General off the list. -- LEMON #1 03:01, 4 October 2010 (BST)

On wikipedia, where they belong, you tard. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 21:50, 14 October 2010 (BST)

We already had a similiar discussion with Revenant, no user redirects in a disambiguation. Just please drop it. -- Thadeous Oakley Talk 20:39, 18 September 2012 (BST)

This is a different thing and you know it. Revenant was an actual redirect. You were directed to a page other than the actual link, which meant that it circumvented the idea of not having user space stuff in the main article space; essentially, Revenant meant that User:Revenant was almost the same as a main space page but only one user had control over it. This is clearly just a regular link. When you click Banana you are not redirected to another page. You are directed to the Banana page where static links can be clicked at will. It's no different than having profiles linked to on, say, Characters of Note or having a sig link on a suburb page like Millen Hills. Are we going to strip all those out? Of course not. Learn the difference between a link and a redirect then come back to me thanks. 20:42, 18 September 2012 (BST)

Revenant wasn't a redirect but a disambig. It contained the groups The Revenant and Revenant Zombies as well as a user link to User:Revenant. Coincindently it was created by User:Revenant. It was later deleted under the reasoning that it was a poor attempt at circumventing the rule that we don't use user redirects. Also a disambig is not a main page like your examples, a disambig is essentially a page where conflicting redirects are listed. The last sentence is my own opinion. -- Thadeous Oakley Talk 20:49, 18 September 2012 (BST)
