Only in the most narrow of world views is it possible to argue that this is the only meaning of the word, the only thing someone would be looking for in Wikipedia. I object to being reversed and told to participate in this talk page, when I find here that the only people supporting this situation against past objections is ElKevbo, "a scholar of U.S. higher education", and Comte de Chagny, who "attends or attended Dartmouth College." Bias much? The "influence and reputation" of Dartmouth College referred to above does not extend to sole ownership of the term throughout the English speaking world. This is after all supposedly a global encyclopaedia. And reliance on Google searches to prove this is ridiculous - they are tailored by Google to the person's location. When I search for Dartmouth for example from here in the UK, there are only 3 results about the college, 5 about the town in Devon, and 1 for the DHMC. I wonder what result someone in Australia or Canada gets, or even someone in the US closer to Massachusetts than New Hampshire. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures" title="Wikipedia:Signatures">unsigned</a> comment added by <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132" title="Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132">92.233.255.132</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:92.233.255.132" title="User talk:92.233.255.132">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-07T00:58:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:58, 7 September 2011 (UTC)</a></span><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-07T00:58:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-07T00:58:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Comte_de_Chagny-2011-08-22T03:13:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-07T00:58:00.000Z"></span>I stand by my Google defense.

"Crusade"? Are you intentionally trying to be offensive? I have tried to change this twice now, that is not a "crusade". The first time you objected and said 'come and talk', so I did. You never even bothered to comment. The only other person to comment appeared to admit that he does not understand Google enough to claim what he was claiming, and has not commented since after I said it should go to the list page. So after waiting 5 days, I did it. You had your chance to comment, you chose not to, and instead have just reversed me again. I have no idea what an "RFC" is, but if you tell me, I'd be happy to, because clearly no edits will stick with you reversing people for no reason. Well, no, you do claim this is a "long standing" arrangement. But if I'm reading the 'History' tab right, this page has only directed to the college since May 2010, which is just 4 months, and other people as well as me have tried to change that since then. Throughout the 2000s it always went to the list. By anyone's definition of "long standing", yours is out by at least a factor of 30. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures" title="Wikipedia:Signatures">unsigned</a> comment added by <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132" title="Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132">92.233.255.132</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:92.233.255.132" title="User talk:92.233.255.132">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-12T14:48:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:48, 12 September 2011 (UTC)</a></span><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-12T14:48:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-12T14:48:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-12T16:19:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-12T14:48:00.000Z"></span>First, I have already commented above.

You and Comte de Chagny are the only people trying to impose this situation, that has only existed since May, against objections. Both of you have a bias toward the subject, you as "a scholar of U.S. higher education" and he, who "attends or attended Dartmouth College." Neither of you have made a convincing argument why this should be so, you didn't bother to even contribute while reversing. And yes, I agree that you do not have to repeat yourself as long as your point was still valid, but my point has nothing to do with how many students attend the college. You have made no attempt whatsoever to show how the college's "influence and reputation" is such that it can claim sole use of the term Dartmouth throughout the English speaking world, over and above all other uses. Comte de Chagny tried to justify this using Google, but his point is completely undermined by the fact he clearly doesn't understand how Google works. The status quo is clearly to go to the list, as it did before May for over a decade. This is the true "long standing" situation that you are disturbing with your reverses. That RFC process look horrendously complex, there must be simpler ways of getting other opinions. But I suspect that's by design, as you probably hope I will just go away rather than trying to figure it out, thereby leaving it in the situation you are trying to impose. So I will return it to the list version, and I ask that you get other opinions here to show there is support for changing away from the true status quo. If you just reverse again, then I will have to report this as an obvious abuse of Wikipedia. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures" title="Wikipedia:Signatures">unsigned</a> comment added by <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132" title="Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132">92.233.255.132</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:92.233.255.132" title="User talk:92.233.255.132">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:01, 13 September 2011 (UTC)</a></span><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:52:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z"></span>I'll start an RFC for you since you're too damn lazy to do it yourself and insist on edit warring about this issue without seeking input from others. <a href="/wiki/User:ElKevbo" title="User:ElKevbo">ElKevbo</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:ElKevbo" title="User talk:ElKevbo">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:52:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">16:52, 13 September 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:52:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:52:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T14:01:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:57:00.000Z-Redirect_to_Dartmouth_College?"></span>Well if you had just told me how easy it was, I obviously would have done it.

This is how it was for most of the last decade until May this year. The only people who have been trying to make it go to the college since then, against objections from several people, is ElKevbo, "a scholar of U.S. higher education", and Comte de Chagny, who "attends or attended Dartmouth College.", so obviously, they have an inherent bias toward the mindset that there's only one well known meaning of the word "Dartmouth". Well, this is patently not true, there are several uses of it in the English speaking world, enough to make the list the first page you should see anyway, on Wikipedia, the supposedly global encyclopaedia. Depending on where in the world you are, when you Google "Dartmouth", you do not get a whole page of links about the college. The college's official site gets the top result in most places true, but that's understandable given how Google ranks work, and the fact none of the other contenders has an 'official site' per se. But when you look at the rest of the results that make it onto the first page, particularly for searches done on Google.com outside the US, and on all the other non-US Goggle domains such as .co.uk and .ca and .au, its clear that the other uses of the word are also prominent. It must also be common in the US due to Dartmouth, Massachusetts. Wikipedia pretending that the college is the main meaning is simply wrong. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures" title="Wikipedia:Signatures">unsigned</a> comment added by <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132" title="Special:Contributions/92.233.255.132">92.233.255.132</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:92.233.255.132" title="User talk:92.233.255.132">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:47, 13 September 2011 (UTC)</a><span data-mw-comment-end="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"></span></span><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span></li></ul> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-14T05:23:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z"></span>Being an expert in an area does not mean one has an inherent bias and I'll thank you to stop your <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPA" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPA">ridiculous accusations</a>. <a href="/wiki/User:ElKevbo" title="User:ElKevbo">ElKevbo</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:ElKevbo" title="User talk:ElKevbo">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-ElKevbo-2011-09-14T05:23:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:23, 14 September 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-14T05:23:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-14T05:23:00.000Z-92.233.255.132-2011-09-13T19:47:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-92.233.255.132-2011-09-14T15:40:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-14T05:23:00.000Z"></span>They are not ridiculous, it's simple human nature, as any behavioural scientist would confirm. To your mind, the college is so famous that it has become synonymous with the name "Dartmouth" across the English speaking world. If you were a scholar of the English language, that could probably be taken as read, but as "a scholar of U.S. higher education", where you are unlikely to ever even read a document or book where the name "Dartmouth" is used to mean anything else, people are more than entitled to consider whether there is any bias behind that view.

It says that the term "Dartmouth" should <i>not</i> go to a disambiguation page if there is a "primary topic" for that term. The guideline says: <i> "a topic is primary for a term if it is highly likely—much more likely than any other, and more likely than all the others combined—to be the subject being sought when a reader enters that term in the Search box." </i> In my opinion, the college is - at least in the United States - the major use of the term "Dartmouth". On the other hand, WP should not be USA-centric. Plus, there is the factor that the name of the college is "Dartmouth College", not just "Dartmouth". For those reasons, I'd lean towards a disambiguation rather than the college. --<a href="/wiki/User:Noleander" title="User:Noleander">Noleander</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Noleander" title="User talk:Noleander">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-Noleander-2011-09-14T00:52:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:52, 14 September 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Noleander-2011-09-14T00:52:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Noleander-2011-09-14T00:52:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"></span></li></ul> <ul><li><b><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-14T05:22:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"></span>College</b> A quick glance at page views clearly shows that it is the primary topic:</li></ul> <dl><dd><dl><dd><table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th>Article </th> <th>Views in July, 2011 </th> <th>Current ranking in en.wikipedia </th></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth_College" title="Dartmouth College">Dartmouth College</a> </td> <td>50,019 </td> <td>8963 </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth,_Devon" title="Dartmouth, Devon">Dartmouth, Devon</a> </td> <td>5,840 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth,_Victoria" title="Dartmouth, Victoria">Dartmouth, Victoria</a> </td> <td>121 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth,_Nova_Scotia" title="Dartmouth, Nova Scotia">Dartmouth, Nova Scotia</a> </td> <td>5,803 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth,_Massachusetts" title="Dartmouth, Massachusetts">Dartmouth, Massachusetts</a> </td> <td>2,699 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth_High_School_(Nova_Scotia)" title="Dartmouth High School (Nova Scotia)">Dartmouth High School (Nova Scotia)</a> </td> <td>175 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth_Academy" title="Dartmouth Academy">Dartmouth Academy</a> </td> <td>0 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Earl_of_Dartmouth" title="Earl of Dartmouth">Earl of Dartmouth</a> </td> <td>798 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Port_of_Dartmouth_Royal_Regatta" title="Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta">Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta</a> </td> <td>201 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/The_Dartmouth" title="The Dartmouth">The Dartmouth</a> </td> <td>328 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr> <tr> <td><a href="/wiki/Dartmouth" class="mw-disambig" title="Dartmouth">Dartmouth</a> </td> <td>2,871 </td> <td>Unranked </td></tr></tbody></table></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><small>These stats were gathered using <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://stats.grok.se/">this tool</a>.

The page <a href="/wiki/Earl_of_Dartmouth" title="Earl of Dartmouth">Earl of Dartmouth</a> is about the Peerage title but is not a biography of any of its holders, any of whom might be referred to as 'Lord Dartmouth' and might be searched for under 'Dartmouth'. (The college was named after the 2nd Earl.) So really they need to be added to the mix. The July 2011 views were 254 for the 1st Baron, 167 for the 1st Earl, 562 for the 2nd, 186 for the 3rd, 147 for the 4th, 130 for the 5th, 165 for the 6th, 188 for the 7th, 137 for the 8th, 439 for the 9th, and 848 for the 10th for a total of 3,223 page views. That being said, page views are only one way of determining the primary topic; I still hold to the view that the fact that the College was named after the Earl, and the Earl was named after the town in Devon, means that the town in Devon must be the primary topic even if it is eclipsed in page views. <a href="/wiki/User:Sam_Blacketer" title="User:Sam Blacketer">Sam Blacketer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Sam_Blacketer" title="User talk:Sam Blacketer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dartmouth#c-Sam_Blacketer-2011-09-15T14:59:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:59, 15 September 2011 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Sam_Blacketer-2011-09-15T14:59:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Sam_Blacketer-2011-09-15T14:59:00.000Z-ElKevbo-2011-09-13T16:54:00.000Z"></span></li></ul> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-ElKevbo-2011-09-15T21:38:00.000Z-Sam_Blacketer-2011-09-15T14:59:00.000Z"></span>I concede that the page view stats could be expanded by adding additional articles.
