Another way to detect disambiguation links
Anomie's Link Classifier adds a tab next to "watch" that color-codes wikilinks by type (redirect, up for deletion, disambig, etc.) It's an easy way to review an article for dablinks after you've worked on it.
Yet another way to detect disambiguation links
Click Preferences → Gadgets → Display links to disambiguation pages in orange. It does what it says on the tin. If you follow the orange link, and copy/paste the exact intended article title into the WL brackets you just created, the bot will never bother you again.
