Lakes (disambiguation)

There are a number of articles named Lakes, which require disambiguation. There are two options to do that:

1. Include them in Lake (disambiguation)
2. Have an article Lakes (disambiguation)

Examples for both concepts are common in the English wikipedia:

1. Battle Hymn
2. Mirror (disambiguation) / Mirrors (disambiguation)

In the case of lakes, the majority of articles do not refer to a body of water:

• Lakes (band), American indie rock band
• Lakes (restaurant), a former Michelin starred restaurant in the Netherlands
• The Sinixt or Lakes tribe, Native Americans in Washington state and the Kootenay region of British Columbia
• Lakes (state), one of the ten states of South Sudan
• Lakes, Alaska, a place near Anchorage
• Lakes, Cumbria, a civil parish
• Arthur Lakes

Therefore I suggest to turn Lakes (disambiguation), which currently redirects to Lake (disambiguation) into a disambiguation page. Inwind (talk) 07:35, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Good idea. Wire723 (talk) 11:16, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

You both seem to have missed the point that, up to now, Lakes (disambiguation) has been a redirect to Lake (disambiguation), which is already a disambiguation page. It has not been redirected to an article about bodies of water. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 02:44, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
