Yes we should. These characters fall into the same category as our "S1 Cursed characters". They're exactly similar to Evil Queen/Regina Mills or Sheriff/Keith. Except for the fact that:

a) They have the exact same name, unlike Snow White and Mary Margaret Blanchard. Therefore, we will have a page named Jefferson (Enchanted Forest) with the whole content, another page named Jefferson (Storybrooke) with the whole content AND a third page named Jefferson that redirects to both JEF and JSB? That's as redundant as it can possibly get. Three pages to represent one doesn't seem a good idea to me.

b) Keith has always been a exception, because he is not a "S1 Cursed character", rather a S2 cursed character (the kind that gets double infobox), though he has kept his two pages unlike Johanna, Smee etc. First of all, there is no three pages. "Jefferson" is and should be a disambig page. Like all other pages in that case. Mostly because we also happen to have stuff like "Jefferson's Mansion", etc... Right, I said "redirect", but I meant "disambig" xD Still, a disambig page named Bashful seems weird if we take in account that both entries in the disambig box will redirect to the same content. About having stuff like "Jefferson's Mansion'", that's not enough for a disambig page. A box on the top of the page is more than enough, or we would need disambig Zelena between "Zelena (Character)" and "Zelena's Farmhouse" etc.

Second, they may have the exact same name, but what would make ZERO sense is to merge them under one name, while a similar character with a similar situation would have two pages cos we happen to know its cursed name. So what? Doc has one but not Sneezy/Walter? This point, though it's not my personal opinion, makes sense.

Also, keeping the pages like that allows us to keep the merge quite easy, which was one of our main goals in this. Like that, we don't have to update any links on the wiki. '''This, too, is reasonable. I'm just not a fan of having (SB) (EF) thing after the merging - though I think only Granny, the Dwarves and Jefferson have that, unless I'm missing someone.'''
