Otheruses templates/doc

This documentation subpage contains instructions, categories, or other information for technical reasons.
To view the Sjabloon page itself, see Sjabloon:Otheruses templates.

The {{Otheruses templates}} template is a template documentation box for all of the Otheruses templates. It takes no parameters, and should not be substed.

Otheruses templates[]

Generic[]

{{Dablink|TEXT}}
TEXT

For example: {{dablink|For other senses of this term, see [[etc...]]}} . (Note: adaptable, but fails to standardize hatnotes).

{{Selfref|TEXT}} Sjabloon:Selfref

Note: similar in usage to the Dablink template, such as linking an article from the main namespace to the Wikipedia namespace. (See: Avoid self-references for more details).

Otheruses[]

Note: when used in the main namespace, the word "page" is replaced by "article" in the following hatnotes.

{{about}} is the main template for giving other uses.

{{about|USE1}}

This page gaat over USE1.
Voor ander toepassingen, zie Otheruses templates/doc (doorverwijzing).

{{about|USE1||PAGE2}} (When the disambiguation page has a different name — Note the empty second parameter)

This page gaat over USE1.
Voor ander toepassingen, zie PAGE2.

{{about|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} (When there is only one other use)

This page gaat over USE1.
Voor USE2, zie PAGE2.

{{about|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4|USE5|PAGE5}} (When there are up to five other uses — You should generally create a disambiguation page at this point)

This page gaat over USE1.
        Voor USE2, zie PAGE2.
        Voor USE3, zie PAGE3.
        Voor USE4, zie PAGE4.
        Voor USE5, zie 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)

This page gaat over USE1.
        Voor USE2, zie PAGE2.
        Voor USE3, zie PAGE3.
        Voor other uses, zie Otheruses templates/doc (doorverwijzing).

{{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)

        Voor USE2, zie PAGE2.
        Voor USE3, zie PAGE3.
        Voor other uses, zie Otheruses templates/doc (doorverwijzing).

Variations[]

There are, historically, a whole family of "other uses" templates for specific cases. {{otheruses4}} has been generalized and merged with {{about}} to form the standard hatnote for "other uses" and many of the others 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}} or {{for}} templates.

Sjabloon:Tlp (disambiguous)

Voor ander toepassingen, zie Otheruses templates/doc (doorverwijzing).

Note: Sjabloon:Tlp will produce the same result.

Sjabloon:Tlp (disambiguous) Sjabloon:Otheruses1

Note: Sjabloon:Tlp will produce the same result.

Sjabloon:Tlp (disambiguous) Sjabloon:Otheruses2

Note: adds "(disambiguation)" to whatever is input as the PAGE1.

Sjabloon:Tlp Sjabloon:Otheruses3

Note: Sjabloon:Tlp (with one empty parameter) or Sjabloon:Tlp (with two empty parameters) will produce the same result.

Sjabloon:Tlp (disambiguous) Sjabloon:Otheruses5

Note: use when there is both a singular and plural disambiguation page. (Only works when the plural is formed by simply adding a "s" at the end)

Sjabloon:Tlp Sjabloon:Otheruses6

Note: use when there are two disambiguation pages, such as a noun and an adjective or a singular and irregular plural. There are only two parameters, at least one parameter is required.

Note: Sjabloon:Tlp will produce the same result.

Sjabloon:Tlp Sjabloon:Otheruses7

Note: Sjabloon:Tlp will produce the same result.

Sjabloon:Tlp Sjabloon:Otheruses8
Sjabloon:Tlp Sjabloon:This

Note: Sjabloon:Tlp (with one empty parameter) will produce the same result.

Sjabloon:Tlp (disambiguous) Sjabloon:Otheruses-section

Note: same as {{about}}, except that it says "section", instead of "article" or "page".

For (other topic)[]

Both {{for}} (and {{for2}}) can be used instead of {{about}} so as not to display: This page is about USE1. This effect can also be achieved by using an empty first parameter in {{about}}.

For example: Sjabloon:Tlp is the same as Sjabloon:Tlp (note empty first parameter).

Also, {{for3}} is somewhat different, appending the word the in its mention of the second parameter, then generating a link, using either the second or (if present) the third parameter, as a parenthetical. Additionally, {{the}} is simply a rendering of {{for3}}, without bothering with the optional first argument.

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.

Please do not edit these templates, unless you know what you are doing.

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 another template already, that will do this job? Since many disambiguation and redirection templates have already been created, first check: Category:Article management templates.
Do I really need a new template for this? Will it likely be used on any other articles or should I just use {{dablink}} instead? Before creating a new template, see: 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: see: Template test cases.
