Ice Age (movie)

This entry should be Free ringtones Ice Age (movie). If you doubt this, look at "What links here." A linked reference to "Ice Age" in text normally links to ''the'' Ice Age, not an animated feature. Majo Mills Wetman/Wetman 20:08, 29 Jun 2004

: Then those links should be fixed, not the title of this article. There is no reason for this page to have a disambiguation when it is not necessary. Article titles are case-sensitive (except for the first letter), so we might as well make use of it. — Mosquito ringtone Timwi/Timwi 13:33, 5 Aug 2004

: What doesn't make sense is to have the primary title not related to the main event, but a B movie about it. It needs to be moved back to Ice Age (film)or Ice Age (movie). I'll change it if no one else does. Sabrina Martins Pollinator/Pollinator 15:33, Aug 5, 2004


There being no objection, the page was moved to here. There was a redirect page here that had to be deleted. So that the history is not lost, it is posted here:

Please keep this article at Abbey Diaz Ice Age. There no good reason for
# adding an unnessary disambiguation parenthesis to the title
# redirecting users to a place they probably didn't want to go to
# encouraging wrong linking
Thanks. — Free ringtones Timwi/Timwi 02:29, 31 Aug 2004

:This belongs at Ice Age (movie) to avoid confusion with the real event. I proposed the change, waited some time, and no one objected. I am going to move it back within the next few days. It seems to be a case of confusion of entertainment with reality. Majo Mills Pollinator/Pollinator 02:35, Aug 31, 2004

:: (Mosquito ringtone William M. Connolley/William M. Connolley 08:29, 31 Aug 2004 ) Argh! What is going on. I assert (on the grounds that reality gets precedence over fiction) that:

* Ice Age (movie) describes the movie
* Ice age is the glaciological/climatological phenomenom
* Ice Age redirects to Ice age

:::Thank you for this sensible move. Sabrina Martins Wetman/Wetman 08:37, 31 Aug 2004
::::AMEN! Cingular Ringtones Pollinator/Pollinator 12:01, Aug 31, 2004

:: and I've changed it so that is so.

:::: (ps: thanks - I think - to Wetman for fixing my fix properly...)

:::If you are looking for an article about the ice age, "Ice Age" is not "spelled" right - it's "Ice age". Agree? (WMC: yes) Then there is only one article with the title "Ice Age" - the one about the movie.

:::If you really consider these ambiguous, I think the disambiguation is wrong. "Ice Age" should NOT redirect to "Ice age". It should either redirect to "Ice Age (movie)", or link to both.

:::: (happen alex William M. Connolley/William M. Connolley 09:09, 31 Aug 2004 ) Yes, thats poss - Ice Age could well be a disambig page instead of redir to Ice age.

:::Personally, I agree with Timwi: "Ice Age" should contain the article about the movie. You could make "See also"-links to solve the actual problem. I just made such a link from from georgetown Junit to JUnit, as I think many people make that spelling error.

:::: (even embraced William M. Connolley/William M. Connolley 09:09, 31 Aug 2004 ) I strongly disagree: Ice Age can't be the movie page. What next? "Jesus of Nazareth" becomes a link to the movie, with a little note on it saying "oh and by the way..."? But I agree Ice Age could be disambig.

The '''Ice Age''' in adult discussion is the most recent glaciation, the Wisconsinian or whatever, one of the sequences of '''ice ages''' that characterize the Pleistocene. '''''Ice Age''''' (in italics) is an animated film geared for pre-teens. Have some perspective! sentence may Wetman/Wetman 09:16, 31 Aug 2004

: If the article about glaciation was titled "Ice Age", this discussion would not exist. But it's not, so it does. Are you suggesting renaming the glaciatin article? In that case, it would be very simple: The glaciation article would contain a disambiguation link to "Ice Age (movie)" (or similar). make he Myplacedk/Myplacedk 09:27, 2004 Aug 31
