Talk:Bob

Ongoing vandalism

Could we please get a lock on this...it's clear that people are going to keep editing it in a derogative manner.

Microsoft Bob

Is there any particular reason why Microsoft Bob is a See Also as opposed to a main link on the page? ~Linuxerist L / T 03:05, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not. Fixed that and removed also other duplicates. Talamus 23:25, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bob page rearrangement

This page could probably use some sort of grouping, like:

Real persons associated with name Bob (Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, ...)
Fictive characters associated with name Bob (J. R. "Bob" Dobbs, Bob of Twin Peaks, ...)
Other things associated with Bob (Hurricane Bob, Bob cut, Microsoft Bob, ...)
BOB as a three letter abbreviation

Thanks :) Except I do not think that Mr. J. R. "Bob" Dobbs is a real person, moved that one... Talamus 15:55, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A recharged effort toward the same organization that User:Talamus and User:Nekura described above. It looks a lot better now. We'll see whether vandalism or simple stupidity tears it down again. Lumbercutter 02:42, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Missing sections

I noticed that there are a couple of sections that have disapeared from this article, specifically "Other uses", and was wondering if they were removed for a reason, or if they were lost in a revert with all the vandalism going on? I can't find anything in the history about it. Thanks --Nekura 13:26, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You know, the famous American musician. He's got to be a shoe in. The page: Bob Seger 74.135.40.245 05:40, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bob (Song by Primes)

Need to add a link for "Bob" - the song by Primus off their Pork Soda album released in 1993. Lupeyg2 (talk) 19:59, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Real people?

Why is there no section about real people (famous politicians, musics, actors, etc.), but there's still a section about fictional Bobs? I suppose there's a reason, could someone help? --GetFresh (talk) 20:35, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like a section on real Bobs got whacked last October. The rationale was that very few real people are known as just plain "Bob", which may be a reasonable argument, given that the point of a dab page is not to be an index page for all things Bob (in this case), but to disambiguate all pages that could reasonably be named just "Bob".--NapoliRoma (talk) 23:43, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I see, thank you for the explanation. --GetFresh (talk) 10:09, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
