Removal from Dab page for "King"
[edit] I found the initial content of the accompanying SIA page dominating the Dab page King (disambiguation), via its position just below the link-to-the-primary-topic entry/lead; that showed a gross misconception of what Dab pages are for. The list doesn't even belong in the == See also == of the Dab page -- tho i think a link in that section to the accompanying SIA will be obscure enuf to avoid distracting those who should be consulting the Dab, while it may be found by those misinformed or desperate enuf for the SIA to be useful to them.
For starters, the entries don't belong on the Dab page bcz none of these particular forms or traditions of monarchy (if they are more than just translations of king/monarch) are reasonable contenders for the WP article title "Monarch": at best the articles are special cases that need to be made sections of, or more likely, linked from, Monarch.
The material is far too lexicographic for a Dab page, but does have more encyclopedic substance than a mere set of dict-defs, so i did not simply discard it. It may be that it can become a page on the variety of styles of monarchy, or perhaps it could be merged into Monarch.
