This represents a solution to a problem: ambiguous place names. This should be discussed on
naming conventions! -- LS
Yes, it solves ambiguity, but at the cost of ease of use, and that is a too high price. If I write an article on something else and want to mention London, it is the difference between keeping track of and writing ((London)) or ((United Kingdom/London?|London)). This is a stupid approach. If we want to make it complicated to link to pages, we could just aswell introduce unambiguous object identifiers. --LA2
I agree; London should definitely have a page of its own (and a reference from this one). --

Please, "just say no" to almost all subpages. There are almost always good reasons not to have them. There are better ways to disambiguate. If necessary, this can be moved to [London, England]
?, but I'd say don't do that:
the London is, as everybody knows, in England, and London, Ohio (if there is one--there probably is) can live comfortably at [London, Ohio]
? with a link from
London. No one will be confused by this. :-) --
