I don't quite see the point of a navigation for disambiguations, especially one that just lets you go forward or backward alphabetically. They're not related by topic or point of interest in any way, just by the fact they're disambiguations, which is a wiki thing that's of little interest to the average reader (and if anyone wants an overview anyway, they can get a much better one simply by looking at the category for disambiguation pages). The template also isn't filled automatically, so it would need to updated manually on two additional pages whenever a new disambiguation is created, after figuring out where it even fits in alphabetically, which is hardly worth the effort. Not all the disambiguations even use it in the first place.--[[User:Vellidragon|Vellidragon]] ([[User talk:Vellidragon|talk]]) 17:02, 20 August 2013 (UTC) | I don't quite see the point of a navigation for disambiguations, especially one that just lets you go forward or backward alphabetically.

Point?
I don't quite see the point of a navigation for disambiguations, especially one that just lets you go forward or backward alphabetically. They're not related by topic or point of interest in any way, just by the fact they're disambiguations, which is a wiki thing that's of little interest to the average reader (and if anyone wants an overview anyway, they can get a much better one simply by looking at the category for disambiguation pages). The template also isn't filled automatically, so it would need to updated manually on two additional pages whenever a new disambiguation is created, after figuring out where it even fits in alphabetically, which is hardly worth the effort. Not all the disambiguations even use it in the first place.--Vellidragon (talk) 17:02, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
