This is the

{{disambig}} template.

Important: Please do not subst: this template.

This is a general-purpose template, to be placed at the bottom of any article that exists to help readers find other articles with the same or similar names. This concept is called disambiguation and is used with many common words, such as cross, life and work. This template automatically adds articles to the Category:Disambiguation pages.

Page title fix[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]

In the event that the page title is causing an error, such as what happened at ***, add the parameter: |page-title = page title . Thus, the *** page would use the syntax: {{disambig |page-title = ***}} .

Variant templates[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]

Parameters[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]

Sometimes there isn't a specific disambig template (see list above) that fits for a page, or the page has items in more than one of the above classes. Then use

{{disambig}} but with one or more parameters telling which categories to use. Up to ten parameters can be fed, and in any order. Like this:

{{disambig|school|hospital}}

Only add a parameter if the disambig page has several items of that type.

{{disambig|human name}}: for Category:Human name disambiguation pages (note that you must instead add the category separately if it needs a different sort key)

{{disambig|given name}}: Category:Given names

{{disambig|surname}}: for Category:Surnames

{{disambig|airport}}: for Category:Airport disambiguation

{{disambig|callsign}}: for Category:Broadcast call sign disambiguation pages

{{disambig|chinese}}: for Category:Disambiguation pages with Chinese character titles

{{disambig|church}}: for Category:Church building disambiguation pages

{{disambig|fish}}: for Category:Fish common names

{{disambig|geo}}: for Category:Place name disambiguation pages

{{disambig|hospital}}: for Category:Hospital disambiguation pages

{{disambig|latin}}: for Category:Latin name disambiguation pages

{{disambig|letter number}}: for Category:Letter-number combination disambiguation pages

{{disambig|math}}: for Category:Mathematical disambiguation

{{disambig|molform}}: for Category:Molecular formula disambiguation pages and Category:Molecular formulas

{{disambig|number}}: for Category:Lists of ambiguous numbers

{{disambig|plant}}: for Category:Plant common names

{{disambig|road}}: for Category:Lists of roads sharing the same title

{{disambig|school}}: for Category:Educational institution disambiguation

{{disambig|split}}: for Category:Disambiguation pages in need of being split

For pages that need clean-up use

{{disambig-cleanup}}, it understands the same parameters.

Note that

{{disambig}} might not have parameters for all subcategories of Category:Disambiguation pages, then you have to manually add the category to the disambig page.

Alternative names[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]

For those who can't remember how this template's name is abbreviated, the
{{disambiguation}},
{{disamb}} and
{{dab}} templates all redirect to

{{disambig}}.

Technical details[އުނިއިތުރު ގެންނަވާ]

Internally this template uses

{{dmbox}}. That template categorises pages into Category:All disambiguation pages and Category:All article disambiguation pages.

This template uses

{{disambig/cat}} to handle the categorisation parameters such as "hospital" and "school".
