Disambiguation page
A disambiguation page is a page, found by searching, that lists multiple articles containing the searched-for word, called the Keyword in this page.
{{ disambig }} must be included in the top of a disambiguation page; this adds the page to the Category:Disambiguation.
A disambiguation page is plain; it should not be assigned to any other category or workgroup, should not have a /Definition page, nor have subpages. It should contain only a list of articles using the {{ tl | rpl | Article name }}[1] format. Each article so listed will display as a bullet item with the [[Article name/Definition]] page contents shown to the right, plus an icon showing the article's development status.
Disambiguation articles
In each disambiguated article (listed in the disambiguation page), two things are needed:
- {{ seealso | Keyword }} should be placed at the top of each disambiguated article to help readers find other meanings of the searched-on keyword
- A definition should be created, if it doesn't already exist, at [[Article name/Definition]]; the contents of the definition page will appear on the disambiguation page if the article is listed as described above.
NOTE: There are a couple of ways to create a Definition. One is by looking at the Disambiguation page and clicking on the "[e]" (edit) at the end of each definition link. Another is from the Discussion page of the disambiguated article, by clicking the appropriate link near the top of the Discussion subpage.
