Need

Does this need a separate entry? Looking for Kennedy with search should give you all the Kennedies you need. jheijmans

I cleaned up a lot of links TO this page, pointing them to the proper Kennedy articles. JimmB 22:09, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Alternate spellings

Cinnéide & Chinnéide aren't alternate spellings, that's the name in Irish. (Masc/Fem) Everytime 02:16, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

John F. Kennedy in a more prominent position

I (anonymously, by mistake) moved the mention to JFK from the "See also" section to the prominent "People with the surname Kennedy". I'd guess that people looking for "Kennedy" are referring to JFK in far more cases than to ANY other entry in the disambig page. Forcing the users to scroll down so much to find his mention is insulting. More so taking into account that they have scrolled by across references to boulevards, highways, elementary/middle/high/army schools, colleges, universities, airports, bridges, space centers and stadiums named after him. Why would a casual reader want to scroll less to learn about a highway named after a former US president than about the president after whom the highway was named? — isilanes (talk|contribs) 17:16, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

• Why is there no longer a direct link to John F. Kennedy's page? I notice there has been but then somebody removed it. There are still lots of things named after the president in that section, so why not a link to his page? I came to this page specifically looking for JFK's page, but for convenience just typed Kennedy. I think a link to his page should be readded. Princess-sarah88 (talk) 01:48, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

It might have been a little more convenient if you had just typed jfk (guess where it links to).--Celtus (talk) 06:38, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

• Per WP:BEBOLD and given last mention in 2008, I went ahead and added him back. I think he's probably who we're searching for. CosineP (talk) 16:33, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
