Battle of Galveston Harbor (1862) → Battle of Galveston Harbor – WP:ASTONISH. "Battle of Galveston Harbor" currently redirects to Texan schooner Invincible, which indeed describes a conflict in Galveston Harbor involving that ship, but the phrase isn't used there. Results for "battle of galveston harbor" -wikipedia are mostly related to the Civil War battle. This is definitely worth a hatnote, but the Civil War battle definitely looks like a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. --BDD (talk) 18:41, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
- Alternate convert "Battle of Galveston Harbor" into a set index, like other Battle Of pages, to list all battles -- 70.51.200.135 (talk) 05:48, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
- That would be an improvement over the status quo, but I think the evidence suggests there's a primary topic here. --BDD (talk) 15:33, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
- No need for an extra DAB page. Just use a hatnote per WP:TWODABS. — AjaxSmack 03:33, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose Actually there was a article at Battle of Galveston Harbor (1837) until a month ago. I suggest restoring the article and resolving the issue with hatnotes as AjaxSmack suggested.
