Usage
{{See also}} is used to create hatnotes to point to a small number of other, related, titles at the top of article sections according to Wikipedia:Layout. It is not for use in the "See also" section at the bottom of an article.
{{See also|Article 1|...|Article 15}}
- One to fifteen articles can be listed.
- The word "and" is always placed between the final two entries.
- If more than 15 entries are supplied, a message will be displayed pointing out the problem.
- You can use parameters label 1 to label 15 to specify alternative labels for the links.
- adding newline characters will break article links <1-- presumably because of the leading ":" -->
Example

And so on up to 15 parameters.

Hatnote templates
For a summary page on how to use these templates, see the example page here. For the full editing guideline on hatnotes, see Wikipedia:Hatnote.
Generic
{{Dablink|CUSTOM TEXT}} → CUSTOM TEXT
{{Dablink|For other senses of this term, see [[etc…]]}} → For other senses of this term, see etc…
{{Rellink|CUSTOM TEXT}} → CUSTOM TEXT
Other uses (of the title)
"This page is about … For other uses …"
{{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}} →
{{About|USE1||PAGE2}} (When the disambiguation page has a different name — Note the empty second parameter)→ এই পৃষ্ঠাটো USE1ৰ বিষয়ে। আন ব্যৱহাৰৰ বাবে PAGE2 চাওক।
{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} (When there is only one other use) → এই পৃষ্ঠাটো USE1ৰ বিষয়ে। USE2ৰ বাবে PAGE2 চাওক।
{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}} (Two pages for USE2) → এই পৃষ্ঠাটো USE1ৰ বিষয়ে। USE2ৰ বাবে PAGE2 and PAGE3 চাওক।
{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4|USE5|PAGE5}} (When there are up to five other uses — You should generally create a disambiguation page at this point) →এই পৃষ্ঠাটো USE1ৰ বিষয়ে। USE2ৰ বাবে PAGE2 চাওক। USE3ৰ বাবে, PAGE3 চাওক। For USE4, see PAGE4. For USE5, see PAGE5.
{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses}} (When there are several standard other uses and also a disambiguation page with default name — Note that the last page name is not specified) →
{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4}} (When there are several standard other uses and also a disambiguation page with non-default name) →এই পৃষ্ঠাটো USE1ৰ বিষয়ে। USE2ৰ বাবে PAGE2 চাওক। USE3ৰ বাবে, PAGE3 চাওক। For other uses, see PAGE4.
{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}} →
{{About||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses}} (When you don't need to state the focus of this article/page —Note the empty first parameter) →
{{About|||PAGE1|and|PAGE2}} →
- Note:
{{for||PAGE1|PAGE2}} produces the same result.
- Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".
"See also …"
- 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}} →
"For …, see …"
{{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}} → OTHER TOPICৰ বাবে, PAGE1 চাওক।
{{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 …"
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.
"For other uses of …, see …"
"For more details on …, see …"
{{Details}} is used to make summary style explicit. To be used in a section for which there is also a separate article on the subject.
{{Details|Article|TOPIC}} → TOPIC বিষয়ে বিতংভাৱে জানিবৰ বাবে, Article চাওক।
{{Details3}} allows any text to links:
{{Details3|[[article 1]], [[article 2]], and [[article 3]]|TOPIC}} →
"… redirects here. For other uses, see …"
{{Redirect|REDIRECT}} (disambiguous) →
{{Redirect|REDIRECT||PAGE1}} → "REDIRECT" নামৰ পৃষ্ঠাই ইয়ালৈ পুনৰ্নিদেশ কৰিছে। আন ব্যৱহাৰৰ বাবে, PAGE1 চাওক।
{{Redirect|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1}} → "REDIRECT" নামৰ পৃষ্ঠাই ইয়ালৈ পুনৰ্নিদেশ কৰিছে। USE1ৰ বাবে, PAGE1 চাওক।
{{Redirect|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1|USE2|PAGE2}} → "REDIRECT" নামৰ পৃষ্ঠাই ইয়ালৈ পুনৰ্নিদেশ কৰিছে। USE1ৰ বাবে, PAGE1 চাওক। For USE2, see PAGE2.
{{Redirect|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}} → "REDIRECT" নামৰ পৃষ্ঠাই ইয়ালৈ পুনৰ্নিদেশ কৰিছে। USE1ৰ বাবে, PAGE1 চাওক। For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3.
{{Redirect|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1|and|PAGE2}} → "REDIRECT" নামৰ পৃষ্ঠাই ইয়ালৈ পুনৰ্নিদেশ কৰিছে। USE1ৰ বাবে, PAGE1 and PAGE2 চাওক।
{{Redirect|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}} → "REDIRECT" নামৰ পৃষ্ঠাই ইয়ালৈ পুনৰ্নিদেশ কৰিছে। USE1ৰ বাবে, PAGE1 চাওক। For USE2, see PAGE2 and PAGE3.
- Variations
{{Redirect6|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1}} (disambiguous) →
{{Redirect6|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1||PAGE2}} → "REDIRECT" redirects here. For USE1, see PAGE1. For other uses, see PAGE2.
{{Redirect7|"REDIRECT1", "REDIRECT2", and "REDIRECT3"|USE1|PAGE1|USE2|PAGE2}} → "REDIRECT1", "REDIRECT2", and "REDIRECT3" redirect here. For USE1, see PAGE1. For USE2, see PAGE2.
- 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.
{{Redirect10|REDIRECT1|REDIRECT2|REDIRECT3}} (disambiguous) →
- ... Not to be confused with ...
{{See|OTHER TOPIC}} →
{{See|Iraq and weapons of mass destruction|Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda|Downing Street memo|Bush-Blair memo}} →
{{Further|[[Article 1]], [[Article 2]], and [[Article Something#3|Article 3]]}} →
Other people, places, etcetera
Other people
- Note: same as {{About}} except uses "other people" instead of "other uses" if only 1 parameter is used
- Note: defaults to "named" as in {{Other people}}, exists for options like "nicknamed", "known as", etc.
Other places
Other hurricanes
For articles on storms:
Other ships
For articles on ships:
Distinguish
"Not to be confused with …"
"… redirects here. It is not to be confused with …"
"Main article: …" etcetera
Wikipedia self-reference
- See: Manual of Style (self-references to avoid) for more details.
Categories
Category-specific templates produce bold category names.
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.
Family names
Lists
User pages
This is a Wikipedia user talk page. For other uses of TOPIC, see PAGE1.
Notes
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 {{dablink}}instead? Before creating a new template, see: 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.
