== Otheruses templates ==
To discuss these templates as a whole, please see [[Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation]]  If you wish to discuss general wordings, rather than the wording or formatting of this specific template, don't post here, or else what you say will probably go unnoticed.
 
For a summary page on how to use these templates, see [[Wikipedia:Otheruses templates (example usage)]].
 
=== Generic ===
* <code>{{[[Template:Dablink|Dablink]]|TEXT}}</code>: {{dablink|TEXT}}
::For example, <nowiki>{{dablink|For other senses of this term, see [[etc...]]}}</nowiki>. This template is adaptable, but fails to standardize [[Wikipedia:hatnotes|hatnotes]].
 
=== Otheruses ===
''Note: All of these templates except {{[[Template:Two other uses|Two other uses]]}} are special cases of {{[[Template:Otheruses4|Otheruses4]]}}''
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses|otheruses]]}}</code> (disambiguous): {{otheruses}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses1|otheruses1]]|USE}}</code> (disambiguous): {{otheruses1|USE}}
* <code>{{[[Template:This|This]]|USE|PAGE}}</code>: {{this|USE|PAGE}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses2|otheruses2]]|PAGE}}</code> (disambiguous): {{otheruses2|PAGE}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses3|otheruses3]]|PAGE}}</code>: {{otheruses3|PAGE}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses4|otheruses4]]|USE1}}</code> (disambiguous): {{otheruses4|USE1}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses4|otheruses4]]|USE1|USE2}}</code>: {{otheruses4|USE1|USE2}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses4|otheruses4]]|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}}</code>: {{otheruses4|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses5|otheruses5]]}}</code>: {{otheruses5}} (this is for when there are both a singular and plural disambiguation page; only works when the plural is formed simply by adding "s" at the end.)
* <code>{{[[Template:Otheruses6|otheruses6]]|PAGE1|PAGE2}}</code>: {{otheruses6|PAGE1|PAGE2}} (for when there are two disambiguation pages, such as noun and adjective, or singular and irregular plural; there are only two parameters, they are required, and they do not auto-add "(disambiguation)")
* <code>{{[[Template:Two other uses|Two other uses]]|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}</code> (fully-specified): {{Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}
:* <code>{{[[Template:Two other uses|Two other uses]]||USE2|PAGE2||}}</code> (all parameters except second and third are optional; however, omitting both the first and fourth values creates ambiguity, so please avoid):
:: {{Two other uses||USE2|PAGE2||}}
* <code>{{[[Template:Three other uses|Three other uses]]|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4}} </code>
:{{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4}}

=== Notes ===
'''Do not use [[Wikipedia:Template substitution|subst:]] with these templates''', as that will prevent:
#propagating changes as the template is modified; and
#the ''[[Special:Whatlinkshere/{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|What links here]]'' (WLH) listing.
 
 
'''DO NOT EDIT THESE TEMPLATES UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING'''
 
These templates may be used in thousands of articles, and changing the syntax could therefore break thousands of articles.  If you wish to edit a disambiguation template first ask yourself:
# Is there already another template that will do this job?  We have lots of disambiguation templates already, see [[:Category:Disambiguation and redirection templates]].
# Do I really need a template for this?  Will it ever get used on any other articles, or should I just use {{tl|dablink}} instead?
# Do I know what will happen if I change the parameters around?  Will it break existing uses of the template, and if so, can I fix them all?
