Moving "Obie" to "Obie (disambiguation)"
User:SlackerMom originally created the page "Obie disambiguation" last year. It had no further edits and no talk page. Only OB linked to it. Furthermore since besides Obi & WP:Disambiguation pages with links/Disambiguation pages that link to disambiguation pages/43, the only pages linking to Obie (~30) all meant Obie Award with each link, it seemed best to fix each of those links, to move "Obie" to Obie (disambiguation), and to redirect "Obie" to "Obie Award". More convincing evidence came from the count repeated below of how many pages linked to each of the pages that the WP:Disambiguation version of "Obie" linked to; WP:Transclusions and WP:Redirects were excluded. Only "Oberlin College" surpassed the count for "Obie Award" and Oberlin College was not mentioned in the first fifty Google hits for Obie.

Also when WP:GOOGLETESTing for "Obie", the suggestions below appeared. It may be noted "obie awards" is the only link in the top three that does not indicate a typo.
