This template is for use on Category pages, to refer to the primary article associated with this category, which most of the time, describes the entire set containing the category.

Normal usage (uses category name for wiki link):

If the name of the main article is different than the name of the category — for example: if the main article for Category:Dead or Alive is Dead or Alive (series) — then you will need to use one parameter to specify the article:

Multiple articles

Generic hatnote

[rætta wikitekst]
  • {{Hatnote|CUSTOM TEXT}}
    CUSTOM TEXT
{{Hatnote|For other senses of this term, see [[etc…]]}}

Aðrar síður um sama evni ("Meira kunning ...")

[rætta wikitekst]

"Høvuðsgrein: …"

[rætta wikitekst]

{{Høvuðsgrein}} is used to make summary style explicit, when used in a summary section for which there is also a separate article on the subject:

Høvuðsgrein: Main Article
Høvuðsgrein: Main Article

"Fyri at lesa um fleiri smálutir um …, sí …"

[rætta wikitekst]

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

  • {{Details|PAGE1}}
    For more details on this topic, see PAGE1.
  • {{Details|PAGE1|TOPIC}}
    For more details on TOPIC, see PAGE1.

{{Details3}} allows changing the displayed name for links. Unlike {{Details}}, it requires bracketed link notation:

"See also …"

[rætta wikitekst]
Note: use only when OTHER TOPIC PAGE is related to current article and contains a self-explanatory parenthetical.

"Further information: …"

[rætta wikitekst]

Other uses of the same title ("For …, see …")

[rætta wikitekst]

"This page is about … For other uses …"

[rætta wikitekst]

{{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}}
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri aðra nýtslu, sí Cat main/doc (fleiri týdningar).
  • {{About|USE1||PAGE2}} (When the disambiguation page has a different name – Note the empty second parameter) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri aðra nýtslu, sí PAGE2.
  • {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} (When there is only one other use) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2.
  • {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}} (Two pages for USE2) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2.
  • {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTION{{!}}PAGE2TITLE}} (Using the {{!}} magic word to give the link a different title) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2TITLE.
  • {{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) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. Fyri USE4, sí PAGE4. Fyri USE5, sí 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) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. Fyri other uses, sí Cat main/doc (fleiri týdningar).
  • {{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) →
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. Fyri other uses, sí PAGE4.
  • {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}}
    Henda síða er um USE1. Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. Fyri other uses, sí PAGE4 and Cat main/doc (fleiri týdningar).
  • {{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) →
    Fyri USE2, sí PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. Fyri other uses, sí Cat main/doc (fleiri týdningar).
  • {{About|||PAGE1|and|PAGE2}}
    Fyri aðra nýtslu, sí PAGE1.
Note: {{for||PAGE1|PAGE2}} produces the same result.
Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".

"This page is about … It is not to be confused with …"

[rætta wikitekst]

{{About-distinguish}} is a template for noting other uses when there could be confusion with another topic.

"For …, see …"

[rætta wikitekst]

{{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.

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}}
    Fyri OTHER TOPIC, sí CUSTOM TEXT.

"For other uses, see …"

[rætta wikitekst]

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.

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

Categories

[rætta wikitekst]

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.

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 {{Hatnote}} instead? Before creating a new template, see the 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.
