To back up Mark's point with a concrete
example,
[[Victoria]] has had no controversy, despite the
Australian state getting far less prominence on that
page than it deserves.
That is truly the mother of all disambiguation pages! It would
probably do well to highlight the most important cases (notably, the
ex Queen, the Australian state, and the Canadian city) up the top, as
recommended in whatever manual of style page. Then the more obscure
articles, like defunct voting zones in Canadian provinces can be
hidden down the bottom.
Without even looking, I'd suggest something like:
* [[Queen Victoria]]
* [[Victoria, Australia]]
** Stuff relating to Victoria, Australia
* [[Victoria, British Columbia]]
* Stuff relating to Victoria, British Columbia
etc.
Ok, now after looking at it, it's kinda messy, but I guess it works...
