The page Fibula should be a disambiguation page, leading to Fibula (archaeology) (now Fibulae and ancient brooches) and Fibula (anatomy) (now Fibula). Seem like a good idea? --Wetman 21:24, 4 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

That seems to make sense to me. How do we ensure that anyone searching under the plural, fibulae, and for brooches finds it? If you know how to do a disambiguation page please go ahead. --Otlichnik 23:57, 6 September 2006

I've alerted the administrator User:Zoe, who is always willing to help. --Wetman 05:09, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Always willing to stick my nose in, you mean?  :) Well, to begin with, we should use a singular article title, such as Fibula (brooch). I have no problem with a disambiguation page for the default title. User:Zoe|(talk) 23:25, 25 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Any objections, anyone? Zoe, would you do that for the article, after a decent interval? --Wetman 06:25, 28 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Sure, I'll wait about a week. Prod me if I forget, ok? User:Zoe|(talk) 16:24, 28 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
I have been away travelling. All sounds fine to me. Thanks for helping. Otlichnik 11:31, 6 October 2006

I created Fibula (disambiguation) and added top hats .. I think fibula is most commonly used to mean the calf bone, no need to lock up that name space as a dab page. I think brooch and Fibulae and ancient brooches cover the same ground and may need to be merged and/or better defined as articles. -- Stbalbach 15:29, 30 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
