- At the very least, they need to disambiguate. That means a seealso on the first definition, or renaming it; there are quite a number of existing links to altitude so renaming might be painful.

- I'd already created Altitude (disambiguation) and put an otheruses tag on Altitude. What else are you suggesting? Richard Pinch 21:45, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
