Talk:David McDonnell (AUS)

Hi! I have started this page for a Melbourne SF fan, and I am concerned that fanlore readers may confuse this David with US author and publisher David McDonnell (of Starlog fame etc). Can someone please assist in helping to disambiguate the two Davids. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GeoffA (talk • contribs) 11:57, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

Common Fanlore practice is that we don't disambig articles until we have two articles on separate subjects with similar names. Since the latter publisher doesn't appear to have an article, the disambig is not needed at this point.

As an aside, please remember to sign your post with four tildes (~~~~) and add the {{attention gardeners}} flag for talk pages where you want Gardener attention. We do try to keep tabs on recent talk pages messages, but adding the flag is the best way to get our attention. Pinky G Rocket (talk) 13:52, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

I made a stub for David McDonnell (US), and turned this page into David McDonnell (AUS), then made a disambiguation page.

Another choice could have been to emulate [1], but while they are both "fans," I made the assumption that David US was more identifiable as an editor.

Hope this helps. --MPH 15:55, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
