Good thinking on the difference between [[Garcia]] and [[Manuel Garcia]]. Yeah, there's no easy way around it. I suppose we could call the police officer "Officer Garcia", but whatever we do, we should probably avoid having a parenthetical note in the title of the article if at all possible. We ran into the same problem with [[Debbie]] and [[Debbie Marshall]]. The cheerleader (Debbie Marshall) is much better known than the captured twin (just Debbie) and it'd be nice to have "Debbie" redirect to Ms. Marshall's article, but we just can't do that without making the captured twin have some sort of parenthetical title. Yuck. Anyway, you didn't do anything wrong, it's just a style thing for the titles of our articles. Hope all that made sense. Keep up the good work, and enjoy the third season! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:55, 20 September 2008 (EDT)

Good thinking on the difference between Garcia and Manuel Garcia. Yeah, there's no easy way around it. I suppose we could call the police officer "Officer Garcia", but whatever we do, we should probably avoid having a parenthetical note in the title of the article if at all possible. We ran into the same problem with Debbie and Debbie Marshall. The cheerleader (Debbie Marshall) is much better known than the captured twin (just Debbie) and it'd be nice to have "Debbie" redirect to Ms. Marshall's article, but we just can't do that without making the captured twin have some sort of parenthetical title.
