Should we just redirect this to [[Nintendo Switch]]? This just appears to be another category list (with most of them even also found on [[Switch Block (disambiguation)]]), when we can just link to [[:Category:Switches]] with {{tem|redirect}} on the console's page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:24, September 30, 2019 (EDT)

::Thing is though one could easily be thinking of P Switch so I think that's a bad idea. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 00:20, October 1, 2019 (EDT)

:::That's not exactly what a disambiguation page is for, and that's why it's so bloated because of the idea that anyone could be thinking of one of the other "switches" too. Like I mentioned, we have a category for all of those. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:47, October 1, 2019 (EDT)
::::They've been called just "switch" before, and they're so absolutely ubiquitous I think they're on par for importance with a shorthand name for a console. And a 7-year-old looking for info on that probably won't automatically understand how categories work (I know I didn't when I was about 10 and found this place....)

:::::I still think most people now would search "Switch" looking for the console. If anything we can move this to "Switch (disambiguation)" and link to it with {{tem|redirect}} on the console's page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 02:48, October 2, 2019 (EDT)
