* Fixing links to disambigs is mind-numbing. In my experience, after half an hour of fixing links, my head starts to swim and I have to sit and vegetate for a while. If I interrupt my progress periodically to fix pages that obviously have other problems, I can fix about forty pages in that time. To me, that's not satisfactory. It would be nice to have a bot, similar to the one used for the ]. This bot would do three things:
*# Identify every page that links to a disambig page (using ] and ])
*# Search through each of these pages for every link to a disambig
*# Generate a link to an edit window in which every one of these links has been suitably marked, maybe like this: <nowiki>]</nowiki>.

<u>3. addition of usage notes to disambiguation discussion pages</u>

Several of the dab templates for use in the main article space do not have clear usage guidelines/suggestions associated with them. This could be rectified.

<u>4. monitoring of dab-template repertoire</u>

The template I listed on the main page which does not appear in the Template Messages: General listing is {{tl|TLAdisambig}}, which I ran across accidentally about a month ago. This WikiProject could take stewardship of the representation of disambiguation-related templates in the Template Messages page set and actively contribute to discussions regarding deletion and creation of templates in this space.

Thoughts?
