:: I am not arguing we get rid of the disambiguation page; I am saying the disambiguation should be "Lamia (disambiguation)", and keep "Lamia" referring to the primary meaning. - signed Michael Rogers, [[Special:Contributions/170.110.235.42|170.110.235.42]] ([[User talk:170.110.235.42|talk]]) 15:29, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' Another point: consistency across Wikipedia. A good example is that of [[Pegasus (disambiguation)]] and the main article [[Pegasus]]. Lots of things are called Pegasus - ships, towns, weapons, sports clubs. But they are relegated to a disambiguation where they belong because common sense says the primary definition is the winged horse. Likewise a Google search for Pegasus has as the top result the wiki article, but every other result is about a business that happens to be called Pegasus. And yet we wouldn't say there's ambiguity about the word Pegasus; it's clear what the word "means," such that others use it to allude to the winged horse. So it is with Lamia, and so it should be on Wikipedia. - signed Michael Rogers, [[Special:Contributions/170.110.235.42|170.110.235.42]] ([[User talk:170.110.235.42|talk]]) 16:02, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' primarity not shown, if it were the primary meaning, then MOST of the entries of the first 100 Google hits would be about the mythological beast, and they are not. -- [[Special:Contributions/70.49.127.65|70.49.127.65]] ([[User talk:70.49.127.65|talk]]) 06:18, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
