Per MoS:DP, disambiguation pages are to help find the intended article. Sometimes the term in question is used in the linked article, rather than being the title. In all of these cases, the term isn't mentioned at all in the linked article. If these are noteable, they either need to be in that linked article or the redlinked article needs to be written.

For the same reason as above, I have also removed this from the list.

User:Zero0000 The correct place is already in the hatnote, and we don't put them in the body. Pls discuss here before reinserting per WP:BRD, and see the selfref (or appropriate guide) if not in WP:MOSDAB. Widefox; talk 00:03, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

Please Change The Title of this Article to Dab(disambiguation) because this is a disambiguation Article. SwagGangster (talk) 00:57, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

You are correct, this is a disambiguation page. It is a disambiguation page without a primary topic. If there is no primary topic the disambiguation page stays at the base name and the page with the (disambiguation) suffix redirects to the base name. This should not be moved. - GB fan 10:06, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

DAB-ON

Does anybody know what it precisely means? Used in perfumes. Maybe a mode of application. --Manorainjan 19:04, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

Yes, "dab" is a very common verb. From the first definition in the wiktionary: "To press lightly in a repetitive motion with a soft object without rubbing." -- Fyrael (talk) 02:25, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
