I by no means think I've hit the nail on the head here. Someone versed in human psychology please feel free to expand/fix this up. Mike 01:10, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- It seems like just a dictionary definition to me. Keppa 01:14, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- Gee, go figure. I can't do nothing right here, can I? Mike 01:16, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

wtf
[edit]Why is this about a horse, that should be a side note at most.... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.74.66.92 (talk • contribs)
- The term itself probably does not deserve an aticle (a dicdef would be sufficient), if there is something else you want to write about Pensive, we can make a disambiguation though, just say so. Rockpocket 06:35, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
- Should we maybe add a parenthesized horse to the title as we do with other horse names that may have other pages? I say we make this a style shift. I understand that with some of the horses names they may seem unambiguous to us horse racing fans, but I can understand the other view here.UnseemlyWeasel 07:11, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
myspace
[edit]Myspace says that pensive is a mood.
How is a race-horse a mood?--Can Not 04:30, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Myspace is correct. Pensive means to be in a state of thought and reflection. This race-horse just happens to be named Pensive. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.37.209.246 (talk) 23:19, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
Pensive
[edit]There is a mistake at the end. Pensive is the first horse to win the first two legs of the Triple Crown and lose in the Belmont. Burgoo King didn't run in the Belmont —Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.72.93.172 (talk) 00:19, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Pensive → Pensive (racehorse) – If anyone goes to the page looking for the mood, they'll find the racehorse instead. I would prefer this page's name be a little clearer. The Master of Hedgehogs (converse) (hedgehogs) 15:20, 27 January 2025 (UTC)

- Comment Are you proposing that Pensive becomes a primary redirect? And to what? 162 etc. (talk) 17:34, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- I think that Pensive should just be turned into a disambiguation. The Master of Hedgehogs (converse) (hedgehogs) 18:37, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- With what? 162 etc. (talk) 20:34, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- Probably if someone makes a page for the mood of being pensive, then that goes there. The Master of Hedgehogs (converse) (hedgehogs) 22:31, 27 January 2025 (UTC)
- Oppose. Per above, there is nothing to disambiguate. 162 etc. (talk) 18:06, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

- Oppose per WP:NOTDICT. There's no other article to disambiguate from. And there's already a link to Wiktionary at the top of this article. Station1 (talk) 05:41, 30 January 2025 (UTC)
