Article renaming needed

[edit]

Every other article about Moby-Dick characters that needs disambiguation uses the format "Character name (Moby-Dick character". In someone's haste, this article has been titled incorrectly. It would not be so bad if it were a less egregious error or a much less important novel, but because of the status of Moby-Dick, it would be wonderful if the article title could be corrected. I just don't know how to do it. (Maybe I'll get time to figure it out. It's about time I did!) — Scrawlspacer (talk) 00:53, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On the Moby-Dick listing at the bottom of the page, I see Moby Dick (whale), Ishmael (Moby-Dick), with Pip (Moby-Dick character) the only one in that format. Captain Ahab and Queequeg seem so familiar as to not need specification, though they do have disambig pages. Fast-Fish and Loose-Fish (Moby-Dick) and Cetology of Moby-Dick are also different.
That is, "every other article about Moby-Dick characters that needs disambiguation" seems to refer to one, that is one, other article. If you want to move one of the articles to be like the other, to be consistent you should move the others, as well. If so, be sure to change the links in all the Moby-Dick articles to the new titles.ch (talk) 05:52, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
