USSF should not redirect to United States Space Force edit

USSF is most commonly used as an abbreviation for the United States Soccer Federation. [1][2][3][4][5][6]. TrailBlzr (talk) 16:53, 29 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

It should point to the disambiguation page, which should be moved back. The sudden move of the disambiguation page without discussion was presumptive WP:RECENTISM. The cited page statistics used to justify it stated nothing about the actual use of the abbreviation, just which article on the disambiguation page had the most views. No evidence was given that USSF is even commonly used for the US Space Force in generalist sources, let alone that the Space Force is the most commonly referred to thing when the abbreviation is used. oknazevad (talk) 17:06, 29 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

US Special Forces abbreviated as USSF edit

It's not used as often nowadays since the space force was stood up but it was and is used by US mil, gov, and academia, and other governments. Example, example, example, example, example, example, etc. Jasonkwe (talk) (contribs) 17:11, 11 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Jasonkwe: Per WP:DABACRONYM it should be used on the target page to be included here. If you get it included on the United States Army Special Forces page, there should be no issue of keeping it here. Garuda28 (talk) 17:19, 11 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Garuda28 Ahh, did not know about that guideline. I added it to the page. Jasonkwe (talk) (contribs) 03:19, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Jasonkwe: Happy to help! I don't see it on the Army Special Forces page. Can you link the edit you added it to help? Thanks! Garuda28 (talk) 03:50, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Garuda28 Oops, I spoke a little prematurely and didn't have the edit up yet. It's up now. I also added mention of USASF use (though I think it was mostly used in vietnam era) since the usasf disambig page already had a list entry for them too and would require the same justification.
