A disambiguation page is a page designed to help readers find the correct page when two or more articles deal with have titles or contents using the same keyword. The {{tl|disambig}} template should be added to the top of all disambiguation pages; this will automatically add the page to the Category:Disambiguation.

Please do not assign any other category or workgroup to a disambiguation page.

In the page itself, please list each article using the {{tl|rpl|Article name}} template[1]. On disambiguation pages, this template will display the /Definition contents and also uses in icon to indicate the article's development status.

If the /Definition page is missing for a given disambiguated article, it can be added by clicking on the "[e]" (edit) at the end of each definition link, or added via the article's Discussion subpage link.

See also naming conventions, disambiguation mechanics and list of multi-use words.

Don't clutter the disambiguation page with empty links

If you have a deep burning urge to list everything you can think of that is related to a topic, consider listing those on a Related Articles page instead.
