Draft[edit]

An unusual request, I'll admit. This is a disambiguation page that I just finished rewriting. I'd like to see if anyone can arrange the twelve separate listings here in a clearer and more logical fashion. --Smack 22:38, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Seems to me that they could be sorted into one of only three root meanings - selection (conscription, sports draft, politician draft), fluid displacement (draft of a hull or sail, beer, wind, reservoir, racing, and more abstractly finance), and preliminary specifications (draft report, engineering drafting). Checking the OED for origins of these words might be useful... it's probably wishful thinking to expect they fall neatly to three different root words, but it's worth a shot I guess. Would categorizing the redirects in such a manner assist in achieving easier and more informative disambiguation? I don't know... interesting question. Bantman 01:54, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)
