Using this title for Manhattan, New York?

Shouldn't we move Manhattan (borough) to Manhattan, as the New York City borough & island is more known than the drink? We can then add a line like See Manhattan (cocktail) for the alcoholic beverage to the top of Manhattan (borough), so that our readers can find the article about the drink. --Kjetil Ree 20:29, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

The cocktail article was here a month earlier....Hayford Peirce 21:10, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
I know, but is that really an argument for keeping the status quo? --Kjetil Ree 21:27, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
There's a cocktail, the city, the manhattan project (in real life) and in a movie... there should be a disambig page imo.--Robert W King 21:51, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
Exactly. Hayford Peirce 23:30, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

I don't think there will be a disambiguation page for everything, but we have to consider the case when someone types in a query, and it means different/multiple things. If they're looking for the drink and we send them to the city, what would they think?--Robert W King 00:10, 13 July 2007 (CDT)
