1000+ links to this disambiguation page![edit]

C'mon folks! This is ridiculous. Would some of you who understand the difference between the items on the disambiguation page please go though the list of ambiguous links (see Special:Whatlinkshere/Newfoundland) and fix them to link directly to the correct article. Many, many thanks! Ewlyahoocom 06:33, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Getting there, slowly but surely. --Closedmouth 14:45, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

HI IN NEED 2 NO Y NEWFOUNDLAND WAS NAMED SO FOR SCHOOL PLZ HELP! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.248.233.175 (talk) 22:54, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's not our job to do your homework for you, but I'll give you a clue — break up the word into "new", "found" and "land", and think about what those individual words mean. Bearcat (talk) 23:18, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Man erfähr gar nichts ein bisschen ausführlicher!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.80.255.125 (talk) 16:51, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a failing link linking to the same page here: Newfoundland Island is an island situated in Groswater Bay, Labrador. 82.136.216.55 (talk) 17:48, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reference for this? When this originally came up some months ago the research I did to find a reference for Newfoundland Island indicated that it was an alternate name for Ukasiksalik Island on Davis Inlet. All subsequent references to a Newfoundland Island in Groswater Bay appear to have originated with the Wikipedia reference to it (a self-fulfilling fact, if you will). If you can find an impartial reference indicating the presence of a Newfoundland Island in Groswater Bay, please provide it and re-instate the link from the disambiguation page.Vulcan's Forge (talk) 03:12, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comments on Newfoundland article[edit]

Erm, did you perhaps intend this comment for Talk:Newfoundland instead of the talk page for the disambiguation page? older ≠ wiser 19:33, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but yes, had been working on several pages together, and lost track.Parkwells (talk) 22:49, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
