Ragdoll

Sure, I'll help. Even better, I'll tell you how you can do it. There's nothing to it, really. First you need to come up with a name for the Ragdoll computer modell article. Let's call it Ragdoll (computer modell). Now you can just click on that red link and get to a blank page where you can cut and paste in the text from the Ragdoll article that you want moved there. In case you want to try doing it your self, I'll wait some minutes and give you time to try it out. If you don't feel like doing it, I can do it for you. But it's really easy.

To make the disamb link, you just edit the Ragdoll article, and put the following at the top:

{{dablink|This article is about the cat. For the computer modell, see [[Ragdoll (computer modell)]]}}

That's it. Shanes 21:22, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

No problem. But actually, I misspelled model, in the link I gave you. Putting in an extra l at the end. That's what you get for taking advice from a Norwegian. I'll fix it by moving the article to the properly spelled name. Sorry about that. Shanes 21:37, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

And there's one more thing. If you really want to do a good job when splitting an article like this, is making sure that articles with links to the original Ragdoll article are pointing to the right one. It's not a big deal, since people following a link to Ragdoll from a computer-related article, will see the disambig link on the top and click on it, but to save people a click, the perfect thing to do is to go through the various articles linking to Ragdoll (click on "what links here" in the toolbox to the left for a list when viewing the Ragdoll article). And then go through all the computer-related ones and change the links in them to point to Ragdoll (computer model) instead of to Ragdoll. But I'll do that myself now. Just FYI.
