Hatnote templates
Hatnotes must be at the very top of the page or section.
Generic hatnote
{Hatnote|CUSTOM TEXT}→
{Hatnote|For other senses of this term, see [[etc…]]}→
If a link in a hatnote points to a disambiguation page, the link should include "(disambiguation)", even if that is a redirect. This indicates that the disambiguation link is intentional, and not an error (see WP:INTDABLINK):
- Not {hatnote|other uses|Springfield}; but
- {hatnote|other uses|Springfield (disambiguation)}, or
- {hatnote|other uses|Springfield (disambiguation)|Springfield}
- The wrapper template
{Hatnotes}(plural) can be used to reduce the excessive vertical space between multiple hatnotes.
More pages on the same topic ("Further information ...")
"Main article: …"
{Main} is used to make summary style explicit, when used in a summary section for which there is also a separate article on the subject:
"For more details on …, see …"
{Details} can supplement {Main} in summary sections, or can indicate more details in nonsummary sections:
{Details3} allows changing the displayed name for links. Unlike {Details}, it requires bracketed link notation:
{Details3|[[NTSC#Color_encoding|NTSC Color encoding]]}→{Details3|[[article1|Article 1]], [[article2|Article 2]], and [[article3|Article 3]]|TOPIC}→
"See also …"
{See also|TOPIC PAGE|OTHER TOPIC PAGE}→
- Note: use only when OTHER TOPIC PAGE is related to current article and contains a self-explanatory parenthetical.
{See also2|[[OTHER TOPIC]]|[[OTHER TOPIC2]]|[[OTHER TOPIC3]] and other text}→
"Further information: …"
{Further|PAGE}→{Further|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}→{Further2|[[PAGE1]], [[PAGE2]], and [[PAGE#3|PAGE3]]}→Further information: PAGE1, PAGE2, and PAGE3
Other uses of the same title ("For …, see …")
"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) →{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}(When there is only one other use) →{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}(Two pages for USE2) →{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTION{!}PAGE2TITLE}(Using the {!} magic word to give the link a different title) →{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4|USE5|PAGE5}(When there are up to four other uses – You should generally create a disambiguation page at this point) →{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) →{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.
{About|USE1|section=yes}→
- Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".
"This page is about … It is not to be confused with …"
{About-distinguish} is a template for noting other uses when there could be confusion with another topic.
{About-distinguish|USE1|PAGE1}→{About-distinguish2|USE1|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}→{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}→{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}→{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}→{For||PAGE1|PAGE2}→ Error: no context parameter provided. Use {other uses} for "other uses" hatnotes. (help).
- Variations
- As with {Other uses}, there is a whole family of "for" templates. {For2} allows custom text, such as quotation marks or a link from part of the "CUSTOM TEXT"
{For2|OTHER TOPIC|CUSTOM TEXT}→
"For other uses, see …"
When such a wordy hatnote as {About} is not needed, {Other uses} is often useful.
{Other uses}→{Other uses|PAGE1}→{Other uses|PAGE1|PAGE2}→
- 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.
{Other uses2|PAGE1}→
- Note: adds "(disambiguation)" to whatever is input as the PAGE1.
- Note:
{Other uses|PAGE1 (disambiguation)}produces the same result.
{Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}→
- Note: same as {about}, except it forces a second use to be noted if unspecified by parameters.
{Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}→{Two other uses||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}→{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}{Three other uses||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}→{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4}→

Family names

These hatnotes are topic-specific. They are documented at their template page.

Categories
Category-specific templates:
{Category see also|THIS|THAT|THE OTHER}→
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.

Notes
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.
