Should be article for assault and battery as the crime

[edit]

By default, a search for "assault and battery" should not bring up this disambig page. The other uses as song titles are not notable enough. As this is likely a frequently searched term, we do not want to confuse and disappoint users with a lousy disambig page. In other words, the current disambig page degrades the quality of Wikipedia. The solution is to have "assault and battery" be a page about the crime but that includes a "see also" at the top that the user can click to see the current disambig page. I'll wait for a week or so for further comment and then make the changes myself if necessary. Jason Quinn (talk) 14:25, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with above. "Assault and battery" seems like a notable topic deserving of its own article and is certainly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for this term. Woodshed (talk) 11:39, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
