I propose we consider using primary disambiguation, that is, to move Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding here (OAEP). I believe the abbreviated "OAEP" is the most commonly used name for the padding scheme (a case similar to "NASA"), and that "OAEP" is used predominantly in the crypto-sense (although the only empirical evidence I have for this is a Google search, and I might have crypto-tunnel vision, but still...) — Matt Crypto 23:19, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I support strongly, though I am probably crypto-focused as well. --OscarBor (talk) 20:55, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, seeing as though the other "OAEP" is of seemingly minuscule importance (a governmental institution in a country), I think you should be bold and go ahead and use primary disamb, perhaps with a note in top of Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding leading towards the institution. --OscarBor (talk) 09:09, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I went ahead and did the primary disamb. Since the other institution doesnt have a wiki-page, I had to link outside wikipedia in the note on Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding. Please leave a note here or on my profile if you disagree with the change. --OscarBor (talk) 17:24, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
