{{
About
}} is the main template for noting other uses.
Note. When used in
main namespace
, the word "page" in the following hatnotes is replaced by "article".
- {{
About
|USE1 →
Templat:About
- {{
About
|USE1||PAGE2 (When the disambiguation page has a different name ? Note the empty second parameter) →
Templat:About
- {{

Templat:About
- {{

Templat:About
- {{

Templat:About
- {{

disambiguation page
at this point) →

- {{

Templat:About
- Note:
{{
for
||PAGE1|PAGE2 produces the same result.
- Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".
- Note: use when OTHER TOPIC is related to that of the current article and already contains a self-explanatory parenthetical.
{{
For
}} can be used instead of {{
About
}} so as not to display:
This page is about USE1.
but still specify a specific other use. This effect can also be achieved by using an empty first parameter in {{
About
}} as in:
- For example
:
{{
for
|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1 is the same as
{{
About
||OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1 (note the empty first parameter).
However, it is somewhat clearer when using the {{
For
}} template, since the word "about" does not appear in the statement.
- {{
For
|OTHER TOPIC (disambiguous) →
- {{
For
|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1 →
For OTHER TOPIC, see
PAGE1
.
- {{
For
|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2 →
- {{
For
|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3 →
- {{
For
||PAGE1|PAGE2 →
- Variations
As with {{
Other uses
}}, there are a whole family of "for" templates.
"
For other uses, see …
"
[
sunting sumber
]
When such a wordy hatnote as {{
About
}} is not needed, {{
Other uses
}} is often useful.
- Variations
There are, historically, a whole family of "other uses" templates for specific cases. {{
About
}} is the standard hatnote for "other uses" and many of them can be specified using the {{
About
}} template. However, the individual templates may be easier to use in certain contexts.
Here are the variations and (when appropriate) the equivalents using the {{
About
}}, {{
Other uses
}} or {{
For
}} templates.
- Note: adds "(disambiguation)" to whatever is input as the PAGE1.
- Note:
{{
Other uses
|PAGE1 (disambiguation) produces the same result.
- Note: same as {{
about
}}, except it forces a second use to be noted if unspecified by parameters.

{{
Details
can supplement

Main
in summary sections, or can indicate more details in nonsummary sections:
{{

}} allows any text to links:
"

[

- Variations
- Note: If the number of pages redirecting to the target page is two,
{{
Redirect2
can be used instead. If the number is three and there are three corresponding disambiguation pages,
{{
Redirect10
can be used.

- Note: same as {{

Templat:See
Category-specific templates:
This is a template for linking categories
horizontally
. Horizontal linkage is often the right solution when
vertical linkage
(i.e., as sub-category and parent category) is not appropriate.
In most cases, this template should be used on
both
categories to create
reciprocal linkage
between the two categories.

Do not use
subst:
with these templates
, as that will prevent:
- propagating changes as the template is modified; and the
- What links here
(WLH) listing.
These templates are used in thousands of articles; therefore, changing the syntax could break thousands of articles. If you wish to create or edit a disambiguation or redirection template, first ask yourself the following questions:
- Is there already a template that will do this job? Since many disambiguation and redirection templates have already been created, first check:
Category:Disambiguation and redirection templates
.
- Do I really need a new template for this? Will it likely be used on any other articles or should I just use {{
Hatnote
}} instead? Before creating a new template, see the
template namespace
guideline.
- If I change the parameters around on an existing template, do I know what the result will be? Will it break existing uses of the template and if so, can I fix all of the errors? Before making any changes, see
Template sandbox and test cases
.
