| |
| === Parameters ===
| |
|
| |
| Sometimes there isn't a specific disambig template (see list above) that fits for a page, or the page has items in more than one of the above classes. Then use {{tl|disambig}} but with one or more parameters telling which categories to use. Up to ten parameters can be fed, and in any order. Like this:
| |
|
| |
| :{{tlc|disambig|school|hospital}}
| |
|
| |
| Only add a parameter if the disambig page has several items of that type.
| |
|
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|hn}}: for [[:Category:Human name disambiguation pages]] (note that you must instead add the category separately if it needs a different [[WP:SORT|sort key]])
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|surname}}: for [[:Category:Surnames]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|given name}}: [[:Category:Given names]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|geo}}: for [[:Category:Place name disambiguation pages]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|airport}}: for [[:Category:Airport disambiguation]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|hospital}}: for [[:Category:Lists of ambiguous hospital names]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|road}}: for [[:Category:Lists of roads sharing the same title]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|school}}: for [[:Category:Educational institution disambiguation]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|math}}: for [[:Category:Mathematical disambiguation]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|number}}: for [[:Category:Lists of ambiguous numbers]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|plant}}: for [[:Category:Plant common names]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|callsign}}: for [[:Category:Broadcast call sign disambiguation pages]]
| |
| *{{tlx|disambig|church}}: for [[:Category:Church building disambiguation pages]]
| |
|
| |
| Note that {{tl|disambig}} might not have parameters for all subcategories of [[:Category:Disambiguation pages]], then you have to manually add the category to the disambig page.

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Disambig (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
|
File:Imbox content.png |
This template is used on a very large number of pages.
To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or /testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Template:Helpbox
This is the {{disambig}} template.
Important: Please do not SUBST: this template.
This is a general-purpose template, to be placed at the bottom of any article that exists to help readers find other articles with the same or similar names. This concept is called disambiguation and is used with many common words, such as cross, life and work. This template automatically adds articles to the Category:Disambiguation pages.
Page title fix
In the event that the page title is causing an error, such as what happened at ***, add the parameter: |page-title = page title{{disambig |page-title = ***}} .
Alternative names
For those who can't remember how this template's name is abbreviated, the {{disambiguation}}, {{disamb}} and {{dab}} templates all redirect to {{disambig}}.
Technical details
Internally this template uses {{dmbox}}. That template categorises pages into Category:All disambiguation pages and Category:All article disambiguation pages.
This template uses {{disambig/cat}} to handle the categorisation parameters such as "hospital" and "school".
See also
- {{dablink}} â Basic article hatnote, see templates (example usage) for the full hatnote index.
- {{dn}} â Adds an inline "disambiguation needed" tag to an ambiguous link within an article.
