Hey there! I was at Community Connect and someone brought up disambiguation pages during the 5 Steps to Better SEO lecture. I just wanted to clarify a few things, since we've got quite a few of them at Acepedia.


 * To be clear, the most common entity being referred to should use the page title with no tag, and then it should link to something like For similar names, see page name (disambiguation). 
 * Our best example is "Kei Nagase (AC5)", the most common reference of the term "Kei Nagase". So we would rename her page to get rid of the (AC5) tag, and rename our current Kei Nagase disambiguation page to "Kei Nagase (disambiguation)". Is that right?
 * We have some disambiguation pages for general names that don't exactly have their own entities under that name. What should we do in these cases?
 * Best example is "F-14" which disambiguates for all aircraft that start with "F-14", for example, "F-14A Tomcat". But there is no single aircraft named F-14, that's just the best way to disambiguate. What should we do here?
 * Lastly, you mentioned how adding the canonical link tag in the HTML got rid of all of the edit histories from search results, making them all point their traffic to the current version of the page. Could you guys implement this for redirect pages as well, changing their canonical link tag (and their edit histories' canonical tags) to actually point to the redirect?

Thank you for your help!
