== Usage ==
 
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 [[WP:TRHAT|avoid trivial uses]].
 
 
 
;Use either wikied or unwikied page names (up to 4):
 
<code><nowiki>{{Distinct|foo}}</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>{{Distinct|[[foo]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{Distinct|foo}}
 
<code>{<nowiki>{Distinct|foo|bar|something|baz}}</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>{{Distinct|[[foo]]|[[bar]]|[[Something (concept)|Something]]|[[baz]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{Distinct|foo|bar|something|baz}}
 
 
 
;Use along with additional text for explanation:
 
<code><nowiki>{{Distinct|the made-up words [[foo]] and [[bar]]}}</nowiki></code> → {{Distinct|the made-up words [[foo]] and [[bar]]}}

* {{tl|Distinguish2}}, for multiple disambiguation targets or prepending "the".
 
* {{tl|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).
