Note: {{ for ||PAGE1|PAGE2}} produces the same result.

• {{ Other uses-section |USE}} (disambiguous) →

Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".

" See also … " [ hariri chanzo ]

• {{ See also |OTHER TOPIC|OTHER TOPIC2}} →
  Tazama pia: OTHER TOPIC  na OTHER TOPIC2

Note: use when OTHER TOPIC is related to that of the current article and already contains a self-explanatory parenthetical.

• {{ See also2 |[[OTHER TOPIC]]|[[OTHER TOPIC2]]|[[OTHER TOPIC3]] and other text}} →
  See also: OTHER TOPIC , OTHER TOPIC2 , and OTHER TOPIC3 and other text.

" For …, see … " [ hariri chanzo ]

{{ 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) →
  Kwa OTHER TOPIC, tazama For (maana) .
• {{ For |OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} →
  Kwa OTHER TOPIC, tazama PAGE1 .
• {{ For |OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}} →
  Kwa OTHER TOPIC, tazama PAGE1 na PAGE2 .
• {{ For |OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} →
  Kwa OTHER TOPIC, tazama PAGE1 na PAGE2 .
• {{ For ||PAGE1|PAGE2}} →
  Kwa , tazama PAGE1 na PAGE2 .

Variations

As with {{ Other uses }}, there are a whole family of "for" templates.

• {{ For2 |OTHER TOPIC|CUSTOM TEXT}} →
  For OTHER TOPIC, see CUSTOM TEXT.

" For other uses, see … " [ hariri chanzo ]

When such a wordy hatnote as {{ About }} is not needed, {{ Other uses }} is often useful.

• {{ Other uses |PAGE1}} →
  Kwa maana nyingine, tazama PAGE1 .
• {{ Other uses |PAGE1|PAGE2}} →

Variations

Here are the variations and (when appropriate) the equivalents using the {{ About }}, {{ Other uses }} or {{ For }} templates.

Notes [ hariri chanzo ]

Do not use subst: with these templates , as that will prevent:

1. propagating changes as the template is modified; and the
2. 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:

1. 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 .
2. Do I really need a new template for this? Will it likely be used on any other articles or should I just use {{ dablink }} instead? Before creating a new template, see: Template namespace guideline.
3. 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 .
