Template:Distinguish/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Distinguish. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original page. |
This template renders a hatnote intended to inform the reader of the existence of one or more pages whose title(s) bears a strong resemblance to the current article.
Examples
This hatnote is generally used when readers have misspelled their desired title, and the error would be apparent by simply displaying the alternative term without further explanation. For example, consider a reader looking for the punctuation mark who instead ends up at coma:
Coma →Not to be confused with Comma.
Readers are presumed to recognize that they actually wanted comma by merely looking at the spelling, and this case generally requires no further explanation.
