Disambiguation page created in the hopes of making Wikipedia more navigable but it is not functioning as per the current consensus of Wikipedia:Disambiguation. It does not direct the reader to any articles that need disambiguating. In the future, if there are articles about B.C. Bookworld and Bookworld the Fair, then this page may be needed, but not currently. Paul Erik 04:55, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

• Keep: Good freakin' god... another AfD nomination by someone who doesn't get it... There are multiple "Book World" and "Bookworld" articles on Wikipedia! Plus the other uses of the term in the Washington Post, Chicago Tribune--hello, like, major US newspapers! Sheesh... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eep² (talk • contribs) 01:11, 14 June 2007
• Keep: Absolutely necessary disambig! Multiple articles with the same or very similar names... Definitely needed. Bradybd 08:09, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
• Comment: Disambig pages are intended (per WP:D) solely to list articles with similar names. Several of the listings on this page are not articles, and should be removed, if the page survives the AFD. Charlie-talk to me-about what I've done 08:13, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Not true. Disambiguation articles are also for the cases where there is a conflict amongst multiple redirects. Per Wikipedia:Redirect, redirects are not solely for article titles. Uncle G 12:31, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
• Hmm, I believe I have erred on this one. There are a few Bookworld and Book World terms that do need disambiguating, some involving redlinks that are mentioned in other articles, some involving redirects. I withdraw the nomination, with apologies. --Paul Erik 13:55, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
• Keep', but delete all of the entries which are not Wikipedia articles. Corvus cornix 17:24, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
