Disambiguation pages
We currently don't have disambiguation pages. According to Help:Style articles need categories.
Should we introduce Category:Disambiguation pages or delete this page?

- Disambiguation pages are disruptive to the navigation and can be avoided. For the purposes of this wiki I would rather specify which of NSS is referred to where full name is not suitable (this goes only for references external to both articles):
- Name Service Switch as NSSwitch
- Network Security Services as Mozilla' NSS
- Redirect NSS to Domain name resolution#Name Service Switch, add message to the top of the section as on Wikipedia:Template:Redirect:
- "NSS" redirects here. For Mozilla cryptographic libraries, see Network Security Services.
- Can be done other way around with note and redirect to Mozilla' NSS.
- Curio for those who want to go deeper than me to what existed first:
- NSSwitch was added to glibc in 1996, mentioned to be borrowed from Solaris 2, which can or can not be referring to version 2.0, released in 1992
- Mozilla' NSS not likely to have release until 1995, other implementations exist today in core like gnutls and openssl
