RuneScape:Requests for splitting/Bandit

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed splitting of the article below. Please do not modify it. The result was split.

Bandit

This does not even need consensus to be split per RS:G and RS:BB, but I do want to know your opinion on which of the three bandits will have its article call Bandit and which other two will have a distinguishing name between brackets (i.e. Bandit (Yah-neeeeeeeeeeeellllll). I think it should be: Bandit [that is, the Pollnivnean ones], Bandit (Kharidian Bandit Camp) and Bandit (Wilderness Bandit Camp). Or Bandit (Bandit Camp - Wilderness) and Bandit (Bandit Camp - (Kharidian) Desert) or whatever.

• Support - Will be split, please decide on names. Fswe1 08:03, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
• Strong support - Necessary split. --クールネシ^トーク 14:31, August 28, 2011 (UTC)
• Support - Bandit for Pollnivneach, Bandit (Kharidian Bandit Camp), and Bandit (Wilderness Bandit Camp) sound good to me.

• Support - Fergie's idea sounds good Template:Signatures/Ciphrius Kane 23:42, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

Liquid's is better Template:Signatures/Ciphrius Kane 23:51, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

• Oppose Ferg's idea - As there are more than two bandits, I'd rather have Bandit be a disambiguation page and all the three types have their names in parentheses. --Liquid^Talk 23:49, August 28, 2011 (UTC)

What about the policy you can directly link to a disambig if it has the exact name of an existing something in RS? Fswe1 06:22, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

Except, there's not one monster person, but three with that exact name. Generally, such a thing would only apply if one person had the exact name but there were others that were similar, or if one page would be likely be what most users would want. Hofmic Talk 06:29, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

• Support - Compromise: Bandit will be a disambiguation page, then the three pages would be Bandit (Pollnivneach), Bandit (Kharidian Bandit Camp), and Bandit (Wilderness Bandit Camp). Hofmic Talk 00:04, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

Erm, how is that a compromise? That's exactly what I said. It's not a compromise if both sides don't concede anything. --Liquid^Talk 00:08, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

Whatever it is, sounds good to me. ^-^

• Support liquidity's idea - Since none of the three are any more important or significant than the others, it would make more sense to make Bandit a disambiguation rather than choosing one of them to 'keep' that page. --Henneyj 02:03, September 4, 2011 (UTC)

A user has requested closure for Requests for splitting/Bandit. Request complete. The reason given was: Okay, seems clear. Make Bandit a disambig, split into the three bandits mentioned.

Closed - Go do it. Suppa chuppa ^Talk 15:38, September 20, 2011 (UTC)
