  • other way to handle disambiguation:

t y friend - U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania

t friend doesn't mention this person.

Consider (1) creating a dab page at t friend (disambiguation) (if it doesn't exist), and adding

For other people named t friend, see t friend (disambiguation).

to both pages. Or (2) you could add

This page is about x. For the U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania, see t y friend.

to one page and

This page is about the U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania. For x, see t friend.

to the other. (3) If they're about the same person, use (tag removed) merge|t friend}} and (tag removed) merge|t y friend}}
