Odense Boldklub
Odense Boldklub should be listed first because the term 'OB' is mainly associated with this club in (northern)Europe. You never pronounce Odense Boldklub, you just say OB. If you don't believe me have look at the club's logo. So please don't undo it Lindberg47 (talk) 01:54, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Introductory line and wiktionary link
The phrases "OB may refer to" and "OB stands for" are both listed as acceptable in Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages). "Refers to" is broader and more inclusive of a variety of entries which may come and go on this page. It includes acronyms, initialisms, and also actual name uses such as OB star and OB (cartoon) which may or may not "stand for" something. No reasoning has yet been given for choosing the narrower verbage. As to the wiktionary link, most of the wiktionary entries in the original box were pitiful and contained very little information, therefore I have chosen to de-clutter the box by including only the "OB" listing, which is, after all, the title of this page.
