Talk:Copper

Disambig

There’s an edit war happening with this page right now, about having the page as a disambiguation instead of redirecting to Copper the element. No one reverting is actually explaining why the page is a disambiguation so I need to explain it here. The user making the change is a constantly changing IP so I can’t realistically send a talk message either.

This page does not redirect to Copper (element) because it is unrealistic to think that users are searching for Copper the element when searching for “Copper”. Education is a limited access educational mode and it is not vanilla, realistically people are looking for some of the various copper features when searching “Copper”. There is definitely potential for them to be searching for the element, but that is an edge case, and it’s more useful to more users to just make this a disambiguation. Comparatively, “Diamond” is not a redirect because “Diamond” is an item in the game that people are very likely to be searching for.

I hope this explanation can clear up the edit war if the user is directed to this talk page in an edit summary. - Harristic / Talk 15:08, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
