Talk:White House

White House
This isn't a disambiguation that's travel guide related but what would rather belong in a Wikipedia disambiguation article. There isn't a town/village/city etc. called "White House" and the one in Espangol is a proper name – nobody will be wanting to search "White House" in English to get to that place. -- SHB2000 (talk &#124; contribs &#124; meta.wikimedia) 08:40, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * This is a complex one. I think it's a reasonable search term for someone looking for tourism information to the US White House. There's a good chance it could be for the other destinations, although I know less about them. Given we don't have articles on individual destinations, it's reasonable to host either redirects to the locales they're in (which we do for most cases) or disambigs when it could apply to several. The question here is how many it applies to. Vaticidalprophet (talk) 09:33, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I think Vaticidalprophet is on the right track. My initial instinct is to make this a redirect to Washington, D.C./West End per wiaa (which gives Taj Mahal as an example of an appropriate redirect). But are the places in Virginia, Tennessee, and Jamaica significant enough to make this worth a disambiguation page? I don't know, but I notice that we used to have an article on the town in Tennessee. Either way, don't delete. I would remove Moscow and Casablanca though. —Granger (talk · contribs) 10:56, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * ok, so my insights would probably to revert to Special:PermaLink/3582923, and then add a hatnote in Central Tennessee saying
 * White House redirects here. For the White House in the District of Columbia, see Washington, D.C./West End
 * Does that work out? Unfortunately, that leaves out the ones in Virginia, Tennessee, and Jamaica so... a tricky one. SHB2000 (talk &#124; contribs &#124; meta.wikimedia) 11:05, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I am surprised that the disambiguation page doesn't list Whitehouse (Ohio). Any traveller hearing Whitehouse spoken wouldn't know that it is one word. AlasdairW (talk) 11:19, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. How to handle the term is open to discussion. I think a disambig is probably best, but it's possible to go the way Granger suggests and then have an "other uses" template or something. Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:45, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per AlasdairW's comment. It is a likely misspelling of the place in Ohio, so I think we should keep it. Given the other uses, it is better as a disambiguation page than a redirect to Whitehouse, Ohio. Ground Zero (talk) 20:18, 23 December 2021 (UTC)


 * As Granger suggests Keep as a redirect to Washington, D.C./West End. That is much the best-known Whitehouse so the redirect should point there.
 * We probably also need a disambig page & a hat note pointing to it in the Washington article. Pashley (talk) 12:13, 27 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep per others. --Comment by Selfie City (talk) (contributions) 13:07, 27 December 2021 (UTC)
