Edits on Mar 18 2008[edit]

Performed disambiguation clean-up as per MOS:DAB

Removed red links Actionscript Physics Engine and Artistic Perspective Entertainment due to lack of covergage elsewhere in Wikipedia
Left red-link for ANSI/POSIX Environment since there is mention of this subject on at least 3 wiki pages
Removed ref to Carlo Pellegrini's pseudonymn - anyone searching for an article on this individual would surely type his actual name and the wiki article doesn't even mention this pseudonymn. (unsigned comment from Marchije)

Yep, found myself doing the same sort of clean-up. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 04:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That "cleanup" was unnecessary. Reason is stated in edit summary. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:34, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Usage of "ape" as an insult[edit]

Nothing to be found here that "ape" seems to be a serious insult when called to humans. Instead wikipedia tells you that humans are apes. Should something be done to clear this paradox? KapitanSpaltnagel (talk) 10:40, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation pages aren't meant to cover all possible meanings and usages of a term, just the ones that have an article (or at least a mention in an article). The wiktionary is there for dictionary definitions, which I'm sure includes some slang. And no, I'd say Wikipedia should not make any attempt to explain this. It seems extremely trivial and most likely original research. -- Fyrael (talk) 17:09, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
