User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-4139960-20130707225455/@comment-45692830-20200621005035 I think we're going to have to be very careful on what criteria is chosen between the people and the language, if this is done, if we aren't to violate the current wording of Tardis:Disambiguation.

"By contrast popularity has nothing to do with whether a title gets a disambiguation term here. We base dabbing decisions largely on whether the topic is in-universe or out-of-universe."

- Tardis:Disambiguation

If we added dab terms to both articles there's no issue. But if we do this because "it's more efficient" to let German refer to the language, that's specifically an issue of popularity.
