Usage
Using {{Hatnote|text}} formats text into the standard stylistic for a Wikipedia hatnote. That produces a short note placed at the top of an article to provide disambiguation of closely related terms or summarise a topic, explaining its boundaries.
Function
This template is primarily used to add a correctly formatted hatnote to a page. Often, but not always, this is a disambiguation link at the top of article pages. It places an HTML div- / div block around the text entered as its only argument, which provides standardized formatting (contents are indented and italicized in most displays); it also isolates the contained code to make sure that it is interpreted correctly.
This template is also used as the "meta-template" for additional specialized disambiguation link templates; see Wikipedia:Otheruses templates (example usage) for a list.
The template does not automatically create links of any kind. Links and other desired formatting must be explicitly added, using normal Wikipedia markup.
Code
<div class="dablink"></div>
Redirects
- {{Dablink}}
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
- {{Hatnote|CUSTOM TEXT}} → CUSTOM TEXT
- {{Hatnote|For other senses of this term, see [[etc…]]}} → For other senses of this term, see etc…
- {{Rellink|CUSTOM TEXT}} → মডেল:Rellink
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:
- {{Main|Main Article}} → মডেল:Main
- {{Main|Main Article|Article2}} → মডেল:Main
- {{Main list|Article1}} → মডেল:Mainlist
"For more details on …, see …"
{{Details}} can supplement {{Main}} in summary sections, or can indicate more details in nonsummary sections:
- {{Details|PAGE1}} → মডেল:Details
- {{Details|PAGE1|TOPIC}} → মডেল:Details
{{Details3}} allows any text to links:
- {{Details3|[[article 1]], [[article 2]], and [[article 3]]|TOPIC}} → মডেল:Details3
"See also …"
- {{See also|TOPIC PAGE|OTHER TOPIC PAGE}} → মডেল:See also
- 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}} → মডেল:See also2
"Further information: …"
- {{Further|PAGE}} → মডেল:Further
- {{Further|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} → মডেল:Further
- {{Further2|[[PAGE1]], [[PAGE12], and [[PAGE#3|PAGE3]]}} → মডেল:Further2
Other uses of the same 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}} → মডেল:About
- {{About|USE1||PAGE2}} (When the disambiguation page has a different name – Note the empty second parameter) → মডেল:About
- {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} (When there is only one other use) → মডেল:About
- {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}} (Two pages for USE2) → মডেল:About
- {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTIONমডেল:TlfPAGE2TITLE}} (Using the {{!}} template to give the link a different title) → মডেল:About
- {{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) → মডেল:About
- {{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) → মডেল:About
- {{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) →মডেল:About
- {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}} → মডেল:About
- {{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) → মডেল:About
- {{About|||PAGE1|and|PAGE2}} → মডেল:About
- Note: {{for||PAGE1|PAGE2}} produces the same result.
- {{Other uses-section|USE}} (disambiguous) → মডেল:Other uses-section
- Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".
"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) → মডেল:For
- {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} → মডেল:For
- {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}} → মডেল:For
- {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} → মডেল:For
- {{For||PAGE1|PAGE2}} → মডেল:For
- Variations
As with {{Other uses}}, there is a whole family of "for" templates.মডেল:Clarify
- {{For2|OTHER TOPIC|CUSTOM TEXT}} → মডেল:For2
"For other uses, see …"
When such a wordy hatnote as {{About}} is not needed, {{Other uses}} is often useful.
- {{Other uses}} (disambiguous) → মডেল:Other uses
- {{Other uses|PAGE1}} → মডেল:Other uses
- {{Other uses|PAGE1|PAGE2}} → মডেল:Other uses
- 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}} (disambiguous) → মডেল:Other uses2
- 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}} → মডেল:Two other uses
- 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}} → মডেল:Two other uses
- {{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}} মডেল:Three other uses

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