I can make that page if you want me to, but first I’ll need some info to put in it.

| == Holdfast (disambiguation) == | |||
| Please note that disambiguation pages like ] are meant to help readers find a specific ''existing'' article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the ] you should: | |||
| *Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for | |||
| *Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end | |||
| *'''Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated''' | |||
| *Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article | |||
| *Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible | |||
| *Do not insert external links or references - Misplaced Pages is not a business directory | |||
| The only article that mentions ''Holdfast: Nations At War'' (that I could find) is ], so I added that link to your entry and removed the other blue links. ] (]) 01:00, 10 July 2020 (UTC) | |||
