I need to link to a sense of "round table" that refers to the type of discussion held at an academic conference. I added this to the disambiguation page, but it was deleted because -- and I find this very counter-intuitive -- "it's under round table (furniture)". Um, I'm not talking about furniture. I'm talking about the academic discussion. If someone wants to write an article on round tables and their history and construction, lovely. But if you've been at an academic conference, you know that said piece of furniture generally is not even in the room. Therefore, it makes no sense to direct readers to a page on the literal piece of furniture. They are better off going to the article on academic conferences. This seems to be an instance not of serving readers looking for information, but of applying a certain kind of arbitrary logic. Cynwolfe (talk) 16:13, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The material you describe is already discussed (briefly) at round table (furniture), whether you think it should be there or not. Round tables are not limited to academic conferences, they are used at any number of conferences involving multiple parties. If you want to write an article on such conferences, go ahead, but I don't believe the reader is better served being directed to academic conference rather than the article which actually discusses the material.--Cúchullaint/c17:10, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
