There's a minor recurring anime character named Flora. I would suggest perhaps using the article title [[Flora]] to explain the plants and [[Flora (anime)]] for the character. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 15:58, 12 August 2023 (UTC) | There's a minor recurring anime character named Flora.

:"Ghosts in the Pokémon world" I think is essential for disambiguation purposes. As you noted, [[Ghost]] is primarily going to refer to the [[Ghost (type)]]. ([[Ghost]] should probably be a redirect and the current page moved to {{redlink|Ghost (disambiguation)}}, but that's a different matter.) I don't think there's any dabtag we could create (e.g. the proposed "general") that would be as immediately clear as to what the topic of the page is as the current title. | |||
:I think in the case of topics where the titles would make more sense as referring to real-world concepts (Radio, Television, Magazines, Movies), it does make sense to include the "in the Pokémon world" qualifier. The main page titles probably should either be articles about the real-world concept, or a disambig page that includes a link to a page about the real-world concept. | |||
:I don't think this same disambiguation is necessary for cases like the transportation articles or [[weather]]. (Perhaps you could argue that Pokémon-branded planes could be an expected topic on the [[air transportation]] page, but my feeling is that in-universe content is more likely to be the expected result, and we can handle that kind of thing via hatnote.) [[Weaponry]], [[death]] and [[illness]] I lean weakly towards dropping "in the Pokémon world", since it's fairly clear those refer to in-universe concepts. | |||
:I can see the argument that we should handle [[human]], animals and flora in similar ways. However, I feel like the distinction here is that "Human" is a term actually used in the Pokémon world, whereas "animals" and "flora" are descriptive titles, so it makes more sense to qualify them with "in the Pokémon world". I could see an argument for moving [[Flora]] to {{redlink|Flora (anime)}} and redirecting [[Flora]] to [[Flora of the Pokémon world]], but I don't think it would make sense to rename that page to [[Flora]]. (Also, I think [[Flora of the Pokémon world]] should be renamed {{redlink|Flora in the Pokémon world}} for consistency.) --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:35, 20 February 2024 (UTC) | |||
