Consider the links in the article https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colombo_Airport
Shipping links for disambiguation pages gives the impression that the links are all possible pages, but in that page Colombo and Sri Lanka would be unrelated.

I'm not sure I understand what the issues is here. We should not distinguish links within previews. Would the preview display links as links?
@CFloyd (WMF): The disambiguation links was something that we talked about at the beginning of writing this spec. I think @Jdlrobson's point is that while the links on that disambiguation page are valid links, they lose meaning when taken out of context.
@kaldari I know a while back there were attempts to fix disambiguation pages... maybe this could be an opportunity to fix it.
E.g. This links to Page title but this term is ambiguous and may refer to one of many things. You can fix this by editing the page.
There are various more examples where this would be a problem in https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:All_article_disambiguation_pages
e.g. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1st_Marine_Brigade and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N._spinosa
Would be good to get a sense of what percentage of pages would be impacted by this problem.
