[Regression?] Disambiguation pages not showing up among page targets in link inspector
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

I'm trying to make a link on the word "Europe".
First 4 results in the inspector make sense. The 5th result is "Castle". The 6th result is a redirect to "European Castle".

I can't see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe_(disambiguation) anywhere (which may be intended because one shouldn't need to link to a disambiguation page so often) and I'm annoyed that I have to type the space, the opening bracket and the letter "d" to make it appear.

The advantage of the VE link inspector is that you can right click on the target and open it in another tab to check it. I feel it necessary for me to check that disambig page at this point because of the currently short list of targets. There are at least 8 different pages starting with "Europe" plus a label in brackets. Even if I type "Europe (", I can only see 5 of them. I would need to check the disambig page to know what I actually need to type inside the brackets to finally get to my target.

The disambiguation page shows up fine, as you say.

It doesn't, I have to hunt for it.
