Usage

{{Distinguish | foo}}

{{Distinguish | foo | bar}}

{{Distinguish | foo | bar | baz}}

This hatnote is generally used when there is an ambiguity that is not necessarily literal, but one that can be reasonably assumed to exist for a portion of the readership substantial enough to warrant a hatnote. When applying it, care should be taken to avoid trivial uses.

Redirects

See also

  • {{Distinguish2}}, for multiple disambiguation targets or prepending "the".
  • {{About}}, if the page title does (without misspelling) describe the other target (since the user is then aided by a clear statement of how the page's topic differs from the other target's topic).
