+Maybe '''Ram's horn (public)''' or '''Ram's horn (object)'''? I do think '''Ram's horns''' (and singular) should be redirect to the disambig *nod*. ~[[User:Soludra|Soludra]] 17:25, 3 April 2008 (GMT)
+:If we choose to, yes Ram's horn should redirect to the disambig and "Ram's horn (public)" is fine, but I'm not completely sold on it. Personally, I don't mind leaving [[Ram's horn]] the way it is and having people use the disambig note at the top of the article to get to the artefact. [[User:Asara|Asara]] 23:06, 3 April 2008 (GMT)
+::Mm, I like that last idea. The horn artefact is just a portable version of the others scattered around anyways; they're not even as separate as the gold commodity and the gold currency. ~[[User:Soludra|Soludra]] 01:25, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+:::I'm not sure what that "last idea" suggests, though. Do you mean leaving [[ram's horn]] the page for the non-portable ones, and using a disambig note on that page to come to the disambiguation page, which would then link to a [[ram's horn (artefact)]] page? If I interpreted that correctly, then the portable and non-portable horns are still getting different pages, which is good, but now the general rule that search terms that match the disambiguation lead to the disambiguation page isn't being met, which is not good (if not necessarily very bad *shrug*). I think it's time for another picture, Asara.. --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 02:53, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+::::No, I think she meant that there would be a note at the top of [[Ram's horn]] saying that there's an artefact called the rams horn at [[Ram's horn (artefact)]]. There would be no actual disambiguation page involved. ~[[User:Soludra|Soludra]] 03:01, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+::::Although it seems there's also a tavern to deal with called the Ram's Horn? ugh. ~[[User:Soludra|Soludra]] 03:02, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+:::::Yes, that's why this disambiguation was a necessity, one way or another. --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 03:04, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+::::::Can you show me where this disambig rule is? I'm too lazy to look and don't remember it. [[User:Asara|Asara]] 04:41, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+::::::Personally, I am fine with a "Ram's Horn", "Ram's horn", and "Ram's horn (artefact)" with disambig notes at the top, like every other article with a disambig. [[User:Asara|Asara]] 04:43, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+:::::::I don't know, but it was your response when I asked. Something along the lines of "Yes, non-specific search terms should always redirect to the disambiguation page instead of open a content page." --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 08:43, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+::::::::Nah. I don't remember ever giving an absolute for this. I vote for "Ram's Horn", "Ram's horn", "Ram's horn (artefact)", and the disambig page. If nobody knows what I'm talking about, I'll do it myself so you can see. I'd rather not have to come up with something that doesn't sound good just to fit an unofficial rule. [[User:Asara|Asara]] 17:16, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+:::::::::This issue is far from over. I just received confirmation that the official name of the establishment is [[Ram's Horn Bar]], not [[Ram's Horn]], which I bothered checking in the first place because "Ram's Horn" should redirect to the disambiguation should anyone search with caps for the artefact or public structure. With that being a redirect, there is no reason [[ram's horn]], [[ram's horns]], etc. shouldn't also be redirects. (Meaning there should be something in parentheses for the public structure page. Any less, and that's basically "favoritism" of a particular page, and disambiguations are made to resolve that problem.) --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 18:32, 4 April 2008 (GMT)
+:::::::::Hmm, if you think it's an adequate solution, we could make the public variety be titled [[giant ram's horn]], as that is the INFO HERE appearance (and thus should be bolded in the content of the article anyway). --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 02:08, 5 April 2008 (GMT)
+The official name of Ram's Horn Bar does not change or hinder what I've done. This issue is over until I, a Divine, or another Head Chronicler says otherwise. [[User:Asara|Asara]] 02:57, 5 April 2008 (GMT)
+:You yourself said you were fine with <span style="color:#FF0000">ram's horn (public)</span>, and you agreed [[ram's horn]] should redirect to the disambiguation. Given [[giant ram's horn]] is even better, though, as it is the item's actual name (just like Ram's Horn Bar is the actual name), and actual names are what the articles should reflect, is it all right to go ahead with that, as it also should clear your doubts about having to add something like the "(public)" part? --[[User:Krypton|Krypton]] 03:06, 5 April 2008 (GMT)
+::OK, I just doubled checked this myself and I'm good to go with "Ram's horn (artefact)", "Ram's Horn Bar", "Giant ram's horn", and the Ram's horn/Ram's Horn/Ram's horns/Ram's Horns disambig pages/redirects, if anyone wants to change it now! [[User:Asara|Asara]] 22:11, 7 April 2008 (GMT)
