    A problem to do with searching on wikipedia. I have created a page in about a man named michael groom who is mountaineering legend (call him michael 1 to make things easier) however there is already an article about an obscure new zealand soccer player called michael groom (michael 2).
    when you search just "michael groom" it takes you straight to michael 2's page. so my page goes unnoticed unless you search "michael groom (climber)" which is what i named the page. I just want it so that when you search "michael groom" it lets you pick either page so my michael 1 page doesn't go unnoticed.

    sorry for the obscure question, it is difficult to get help on the wiki site. if you know how to fix it, feel free to do it yourself as it all open for anyone.

    thanks

    just name it Michael Groom and wikipedia will do the rest for you it will automatically add it to its articles and when someone searches michael groom wiki will let you choose Micahel Groom climber michael groom football player.

    EDIT: I have done something for you type in Michael groom hit search and on the soccer player article i have added a link to your mountain article :)
