The result of the move request was page moved. Everything on the dab page can be reduced to a hat note to cover the use as a genericized tradename. Vegaswikian (talk) 00:00, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Digibox (Sky Digital) → Digibox — Relisted. Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 07:07, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

• Digibox is a trademark referring to a Sky Digital receiver only. The disambiguation page is unnecessary as the two alternatives both refer to the same colloquial usage but in different countries, i.e. that a "digi box" means any "set top box" - this should be hatnoted at the top of the moved page — Rapido (talk) 19:58, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
• If the word "digibox" is well on its way to becoming a genericized tradename, page digibox might keep on being a disambig page. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 20:12, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment - A page named after an item which is fully fledged genericised tradename, Walkman, is about the trademarked product, with a note at the top. This is appropriate for the "Digibox" device - even if the colloquial term "digibox" is only a very lightly used term compared to, for example, "set top box" or "Freeview box".
