COMMENT This is not about the search box. This is to ensure that an ambiguous term will not suddenly appear with a topic, since it should always be pointed at the disambiguation page. Thus this will occupy the location, so that no new article will appear here, since there is a disambiguation page, and a new article should use a disambiguation term. Thus someone redlining Tims and someone else coming along and writing an article there will for the missing topic not occur. The instance of linking to "Tims" will result in the notice that it links to a disambiguation page, so the writer will make a new redlink instead. "Tims" is ambiguous, there is a disambiguation page covering it. it should point to the disambiguation page. -- ~2026-37518-77 (talk) 19:34, 3 July 2026 (UTC)

I tend to agree in this case, given that Tims is listed on the dab page as well. For example, I could imagine someone creating this as a redirect for the nickname of Timberland boots (i.e. 'Tims') and redirecting it there. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 06:19, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

• Target of redirect: William Francis Hillebrand
• Reason: {{R from misspelling}} ??? (see below)
• Source (if applicable):
  • From the best that I can determine since I don't currently have access to the original 19th publications, the person's last name is "Hillebrand" for discovering that helium gas can be extracted from the mineral uraninite. The majority of online sources use that spelling.

  • HOWEVER, some respectable websites appear to have misspelled the name as "Hildebrand".

  • The American Chemical Society might have exacerbate the problem by propagating the typographical error to its 2017 print edition.
  • If you choose to create these proposed redirect(s), I would strongly suggest mentioning some of the above on the actual redirect page(s) to alert future editors as the possible source of the confusion.

Comment: The American Chemical Society publication and website that was mentioned above^[1] contains the following typographical error:

As JACS became more academic in its focus, William Hildebrand initiated the Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, and it is from this publication that Analytical Chemistry was born.

The EBSCO website that was mentioned above^[2] contains the following typographical error:

In 1889, William Hildebrand, an American mineral chemist, extracted a gas from a uranium-bearing mineral, uranite. Sir William Ramsay, an English chemist, performed a similar extraction on cleveite, another uranium-bearing mineral. Ramsey sent the gas to Lockyer, who showed in 1895 that it had the same emission lines he previously observed in the Sun, providing the first identification of helium on Earth.

From the context, the authors of those two respected reference websites (there might be more) mistyped William Hildebrand when they clear meant by context William Francis Hillebrand. Readers who follow these typographical errors would never locate the Wikipedia article William Francis Hillebrand. Please reconsider. Thank you. -- ~2026-36442-59 (talk) 06:30, 5 July 2026 (UTC)
