Could you please explain why you did revert 890522415, please
Dino (
talk·contribs) ? The page
Channel system redirects to this page. And
channel system has at least a second meaning. According to
Lithopsian (
talk·contribs) in the redirection
talk page, since there is currently only two articles "channel system", a hatnote should be used instead of a redirection. I thus added a hatnote. Anyway, I guess that someone looking for "channel system" (related to computer system), need to have a way to figure out there exists another page,
channel system (computer science). So can you please tell what should be done in this case ?

reversion note
Perhaps have
channel system link to a disambiguation page? If there are two meanings, this makes sense, like
Comic (disambiguation) links to a veriety of meanings.
As explained to me by
Lithopsian (
talk·contribs), wikipedia states that disambiguation should be avoided when there are only two meanings (see
WP:TWODABS). Actually, a quick google search shows that there are indeed far more than two meanings for this words, but there are no wikipedia article for those other meanings, so that's not something which should be considered right now. Thus, according to
WP:TWODABS, the rule would be to put a hatnote on the page chosen. I must however note that I assume that
channel system (computer science) would makes more sens as the main page, since it's name actually contains «channel system». But according to Lithopsian, this can't be made now because of links to
channel system. (I can't find any such link however, appart from the talk pages mentionning the current problem. So I can't correct those links).

I don't see any wikilinks either now. I suspect I looked at the links for
Abyssal channel, it is very easy to end up at the redirect target instead of the redirect itself. So scratch that as a reason.
Channel system (computer science) would seem like a good primary topic. Maybe give it a few days to let that brand new article settle down and then see how a change of redirect target goes down.
