It is only recently that the web name ambiguity has been approached as a separate problem and defined as an NLP task -Web People Search -on its own (Artiles et al., 2005;Artiles et al., 2007).
it is useful to point out some crucial differences between WSD, CRC and WePS: • WSD typically concentrates in the disambiguation of common words (nouns, verbs, adjectives) for which a relatively small number of senses exist, compared to the hundreds or thousands of people that can share the same name.
