A malplaced disambiguation page is one that has no primary topic but is not at the base name, e.g., when Fizzboz redirects to Fizzboz (disambiguation). This situation is avoidable, as the disambiguation page can exist at Fizzboz, and the accepted standard is to place the disambiguation page at Fizzboz.
The policy regarding malplaced disambiguation pages is at Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Naming the disambiguation page: The title of a disambiguation page is the ambiguous term itself, provided there is no primary topic for that term. Guidance on the use of a redirect containing "(disambiguation)" is at Wikipedia:Disambiguation#How to link to a disambiguation page. See also ((R to disambiguation page)), Category:Redirects to disambiguation pages.
Never carry out a cut & paste move. If there is a malplaced disambiguation page you can't move, simply list it below and an administrator will attend to it.
Just because Fizzboz redirects to Fizzboz (disambiguation) does not mean that Fizzboz (disambiguation) is a malplaced disambiguation page. It is possible that one of the articles listed on the disambiguation page is the primary topic. If so, redirect it to that article or put in a requested move on the talk page of the proposed primary topic to move it to the base name.
As an aid to seeing if there is a primary topic, check the edit histories of Fizzboz and Fizzboz (disambiguation) to see if either history indicates that a previous page move has recently occurred, or if the redirect has recently been altered from as specific article. If so, seek a consensus on the article's talk page for the proposed move.
Here you can list any malplaced disambiguation pages you would like corrected. Please make sure the page isn't already listed in the dump report below. Before listing, please see if you can correct the problem yourself using the methods listed in the instructions below. Completed entries will be removed from the list.

As of 06:47, 19 August 2024 (UTC), the following pairs of potentially duplicative disambiguation pages exist.
As of 06:47, 19 August 2024 (UTC), the following disambiguation pages exist without any page existing at the unqualified title. These pages are generally erroneous, and should be moved to the title without the parenthetical, leaving a redirect behind for intentional links to the disambiguation page. However, some of these pages should have a primary topic at the base title, or should have the primary topic redirect to an unambiguous topic. DO NOT move these pages if doing so will create disambiguation links; instead, fix the incoming links first, and then move the page.
