Hatnote templates
For the full guideline on hatnotes, see Wikipedia:Hatnote.
Hatnotes must be at the very top of the page or section.
Generic hatnote
{{Hatnote|CUSTOM TEXT}}→CUSTOM TEXT
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}}
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}}→Main article: Main Article{{Main|Main Article|Article2}}→Main articles: Main Article and Article2{{Main list|Article1}}→For a more comprehensive list, see Article1.
"For more details on …, see …"
{{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:
{{Details3|[[NTSC#Color_encoding|NTSC Color encoding]]}}→For more details on this topic, see NTSC Color encoding.{{Details3|[[article 1|Article 1]], [[article 2|Article 2]], and [[article 3|Article 3]]|TOPIC}}→
"See also …"
{{See also|TOPIC PAGE|OTHER TOPIC PAGE}}→See also: TOPIC PAGE and 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 information: PAGE{{Further|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}}→{{Further2|[[PAGE1]], [[PAGE2]], and [[PAGE#3|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}}→ Template:About{{About|USE1||PAGE2}}(When the disambiguation page has a different name – Note the empty second parameter) → Template:About{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}}(When there is only one other use) → Template:About{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}}(Two pages for USE2) → Template:About{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTION{{!}}PAGE2TITLE}}(Using the {{!}} magic word to give the link a different title) → Template: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) → Template: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) → Template: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) →Template:About{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}}→ Template: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) → Template:About{{About|||PAGE1|and|PAGE2}}→ Template:About
- Note:
{{for||PAGE1|PAGE2}}produces the same result.
{{About|USE1|section=yes}}→ Template:About
- 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}}→This page is about USE1. It is not to be confused with PAGE1.{{About-distinguish2|USE1|TEXT}}→This page is about USE1. It is not to be confused with 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, see Hatnote templates documentation (disambiguation).{{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}}→For OTHER TOPIC, see PAGE1.{{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}}→{{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}}→{{For||PAGE1|PAGE2}}→
- 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 TOPIC, see CUSTOM TEXT.
"For other uses, see …"
When such a wordy hatnote as {{About}} is not needed, {{Other uses}} is often useful.
{{Other uses}}→ Template:About{{Other uses|PAGE1}}→ Template:About{{Other uses|PAGE1|PAGE2}}→ Template:About
- 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}}→ Template:About
- 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}}→ Template:About
- 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}}→ Template:About{{Two other uses||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}→ Template:About{{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}Template:About{{Three other uses||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}→ Template:About{{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4}}→ Template:About
"For other uses of …, see …"
{{Other uses of}}→For other uses of "Hatnote templates documentation", see Hatnote templates documentation (disambiguation).{{Other uses of|TOPIC}}→For other uses of "TOPIC", see TOPIC (disambiguation).{{Other uses of|TOPIC|PAGE1}}→For other uses of "TOPIC", see PAGE1.
"… redirects here. For other uses, see …"
{{Redirect|REDIRECT}}→"REDIRECT" redirects here. For other uses, see REDIRECT (disambiguation).{{Redirect|REDIRECT||PAGE1}}→"REDIRECT" redirects here. For other uses, see PAGE1.{{Redirect|REDIRECT|USE1|PAGE1}}→"REDIRECT" redirects here.

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.
{{Cat main|MAIN ARTICLE}}→The main article for this category is MAIN ARTICLE.{{Category explanation|colourless green ideas}}→This category is for colourless green ideas.{{Category pair|TOPIC1|TOPIC2}}→See also the preceding Category:TOPIC1 and the succeeding Category:TOPIC2.{{CatPreceding|OTHER TOPIC}}→See also the preceding Category:OTHER TOPIC.{{CatSucceeding|OTHER TOPIC}}→See also the succeeding Category:OTHER TOPIC.{{Contrast|OTHERCAT|OTHERCAT2}}→{{Contrast|OTHERCAT|OTHERCAT2|plural=yes}}→

Notes
 | This template should not be substituted. Do not use subst: with these templates, as that will prevent:
|
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.
