Petersburg, one of the places being disambiguated is much better known and it feels stupid to have to write St.Petersburg every time I want to link to the bigger of the two.
I don't think there's been a case where the state is sufficiently more famous than the city that we could leave out the disambiguator (the best I can come up with is Chihuahua), but I don't think we can rule it out as a possibility.
In these cases, a disambiguation page is only needed where the ambiguous name also refers to other places that are geographically separate from the city/region pair.

The enhanced disambiguation mechanism relies on a recursive transition network to improve the indexing representation produced by FASIT by enhancing the system's ability to disambiguate syntactic tags assigned to the words of a text and thereby to improve retrieval results.
These results suggest that retrieval performance is not noticeably affected by improvements to FASIT's disambiguation process due to the diminution of the effectiveness of disambiguation caused by FASIT's flexibility in allowing ambiguous tags to be parts of tag combinations selected as index terms.
Therefore, it may be more promising to explore improvements to FASIT apart from enhancements to the disambiguation process, such as changes in the way FASIT selects index terms and the incorporation of linguistic considerations beyond the syntactic information now used by the program.

Selectional preferences are a source of linguistic information commonly applied to the task of Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD).
To date, WSD systems using selectional preferences as the main disambiguation mechanism have achieved limited success.
One possible reason for this limitation is the limited number of semantic roles used in the construction of selectional preferences.
