Usage

Usual syntax

{{Category see also|List of one or more category names}}

Parameters:

1. Most are pipe character-separated category page names; up to 40 pages
2. LABEL=Some other phrase... → replaces defaults: "See also category:" or "See also categories:" (prefix messages).
   1. The phrase is normally italicized. When defining LABEL any wikimarkup or HTML text will be accepted.
   2. You may assume a space before the first category link.
3. SISTER=Any valid interwiki or interproject prefix from de:, fr:, es: access to other language Wikipedias to cross-sister wiki's using sister projects abbreviations such as B:, Q:, S:, v: etc., and, where applicable, both interlingual and cross-project links can be rendered as follows:
   1. SISTER=de:V: for linking categories on the German language Wikiversity, or
   2. SISTER=fr:B: for linking categories on the French language Wikibooks.
4. The template is followed by a line break and carriage return; it may not be used inline in text.

Simple examples

1. {{Category see also|A}} →
   See also: Category:A
2. {{Category see also|A|B}} →
   See also the categories A and B
3. {{Category see also|A|B|C}} →
   See also the categories A, B, and C

example w/default message

{{Category see also|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee}} →

See also the categories aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd, and eee

example w/LABEL parameter option

{{Category see also|LABEL=See this list to evaluate whether one would be a better choice of|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee|fff}} →

See this list to evaluate whether one would be a better choice of the categories aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd, eee, and fff

Pragmatic example

Bobsledding and luge are Olympic sports properly subcategorized under 'sledding', so shouldn't appear (strictly speaking categorically) as sub-categories of 'winter sports'. However, a lay reader using categories might expect to find them there. So to show their presence and guide proper selections for editors choosing categories, one can include the sub-sub-categories as a see also annotation on the Category:Winter sports page.

{{Category see also|Luge|Bobsleigh}} →

See also the categories Luge and Bobsleigh

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

{{Hatnote|For other senses of this term, see [[etc…]]}} →

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:

• {{Main|Main Article}} →
  ప్రధాన వ్యాసం: Main Article
• {{Main|Main Article|Article2}} →
  ప్రధాన వ్యాసాలు: 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}} →
  Further information: PAGE1
• {{Details|PAGE1|TOPIC}} →
  Further information: PAGE1 and TOPIC

{{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|[[article1|Article 1]], [[article2|Article 2]], and [[article3|Article 3]]|TOPIC}} →
  For more details on TOPIC, see Article1, Article2, and Article3.

"See also …"

• {{See also|TOPIC PAGE|OTHER TOPIC PAGE}} →
  ఇవి కూడా చూడండి: 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}} →
  See also: OTHER TOPIC, OTHER TOPIC2, and OTHER TOPIC3 and other text

"Further information: …"

• {{Further|PAGE}} →
  Further information: PAGE
• {{Further|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} →
  Further information: PAGE1, PAGE2, and 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}} →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For other uses, see Category see also/doc (disambiguation).
• {{About|USE1||PAGE2}} (When the disambiguation page has a different name – Note the empty second parameter) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For other uses, see PAGE2.
• {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} (When there is only one other use) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2.
• {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}} (Two pages for USE2) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2 and PAGE3.
• {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTION{{!}}PAGE2TITLE}} (Using the {{!}} magic word to give the link a different title) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see 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) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. For USE4, see PAGE4. For USE5, see 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) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. For other uses, see Category see also/doc (disambiguation).
• {{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) →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. For other uses, see PAGE4.
• {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}} →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. For other uses, see PAGE4.
• {{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) →
  For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3. For other uses, see Category see also/doc (disambiguation).
• {{About|||PAGE1|and|PAGE2}} →
  For other uses, see PAGE1 and PAGE2.

Note: {{for||PAGE1|PAGE2}} produces the same result.

• {{About|USE1|section=yes}} →
  ఈ section USE1 గురించి. For other uses, see Category see also/doc (disambiguation).

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 Category see also/doc (disambiguation).
• {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} →
  For OTHER TOPIC, see PAGE1.
• {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}} →
  For OTHER TOPIC, see PAGE1 and PAGE2.
• {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} →
  For OTHER TOPIC, see PAGE1, PAGE2, and 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}} →
  OTHER TOPIC కొరకు CUSTOM TEXT చూడండి.

"For other uses, see …"

When such a wordy hatnote as {{About}} is not needed, {{Other uses}} is often useful.

• {{Other uses}} →
  For other uses, see మూస:Category see also/doc (disambiguation).
• {{Other uses|PAGE1}} →
  For other uses, see PAGE1.
• {{Other uses|PAGE1|PAGE2}} →
  For other uses, see PAGE1 and 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}} →
  For other uses, see PAGE1 (disambiguation).

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}} →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2. For other uses, see Category see also/doc (disambiguation).

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}} →
  ఈ template USE1 గురించి. For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3.

  For USE2, see PAGE2. For USE3, see PAGE3.

Categories

Category-specific templates:

• {{Category see also|THIS|THAT|THE OTHER}} →
  See also the categories THIS, THAT, and 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}} →

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:

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.
