Editing Template:Hatnote templates documentation (section)

===Other uses (of the title)===
===="''This page is about … For other uses …''"====
{{tl|About}} is the main template for noting other uses.

''Note. When used in [[Wikipedia:Main namespace|main namespace]], the word "page" in the following hatnotes is replaced by "article".''

* {{tlx|About|USE1}} → {{About|USE1}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1<nowiki>||</nowiki>PAGE2}} (When the disambiguation page has a different name – Note the empty second parameter) → {{About|USE1||PAGE2}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} (When there is only one other use) → {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}} (Two pages for USE2) → {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|and|PAGE3}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTION{{tlf|!}}PAGE2TITLE}} (Using the {{tl|!}} template to give the link a different title) &rarr; {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2#SUBSECTION{{!}}PAGE2TITLE}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4|USE5|PAGE5}} (When there are up to four other uses – You should generally create a [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation|disambiguation page]] at this point) → {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4|USE5|PAGE5}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses}} (When there are several standard other uses and also a disambiguation page with default name – Note that the last page name is not specified) → {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses}} 
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4}} (When there are several standard other uses and also a disambiguation page with non-default name) →{{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4}}
* {{tlx|About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}} → {{About|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses|PAGE4|and}} 
* {{tlx|About|<nowiki>|</nowiki>USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses}} (When you don't need to state the focus of this article/page – Note the empty first parameter) → {{About||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|other uses}}
* {{tlx|About|<nowiki>||</nowiki>PAGE1|and|PAGE2}} → {{About|||PAGE1|and|PAGE2|_nocat=1}}
:Note: {{tlx|for|<nowiki>|</nowiki>PAGE1|PAGE2}} produces the same result.
* {{tlx|Other uses-section|USE}} (disambiguous) → {{Other uses-section|USE}}
:Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".

===="''See also …''"====
* {{tlx|See also|OTHER TOPIC|OTHER TOPIC2}} → {{See also|OTHER TOPIC|OTHER TOPIC2}}
:Note: use when OTHER TOPIC is related to that of the current article and already contains a self-explanatory parenthetical.

* {{tlx|See also2|<nowiki>[[OTHER TOPIC]]|[[OTHER TOPIC2]]|[[OTHER TOPIC3]] and other text</nowiki>}} → {{See also2|[[OTHER TOPIC]]|[[OTHER TOPIC2]]|[[OTHER TOPIC3]] and other text}}

===="''For …, see …''"====
{{tl|For}} can be used instead of {{tl|About}} so as not to display: ''This page is about USE1.'' but still specify a specific other use. This effect can also be achieved by using an empty first parameter in {{tl|About}} as in:

:''For example'': {{tlx|for|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} is the same as {{tlx|About|<nowiki>|</nowiki>OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} (note the empty first parameter).<br>
However, it is somewhat clearer when using the {{tl|For}} template, since the word "about" does not appear in the statement.

* {{tlx|For|OTHER TOPIC}} (disambiguous) → {{For|OTHER TOPIC}}
* {{tlx|For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} → {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}}
* {{tlx|For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}} → {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}}
* {{tlx|For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} → {{For|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}}
* {{tlx|For|<nowiki>|</nowiki>PAGE1|PAGE2}} → {{For||PAGE1|PAGE2}}

;Variations
As with {{tl|Other uses}}, there are a whole family of "for" templates.
* {{tlx|For2|OTHER TOPIC|CUSTOM TEXT}} → {{For2|OTHER TOPIC|CUSTOM TEXT}}

===="''For other uses, see …''"====
When such a wordy hatnote as {{tl|About}} is not needed, {{tl|Other uses}} is often useful.

* {{tlx|Other uses}} (disambiguous) → {{Other uses}}
* {{tlx|Other uses|PAGE1}} → {{Other uses|PAGE1}}
* {{tlx|Other uses|PAGE1|PAGE2}} → {{Other uses|PAGE1|PAGE2}}

;Variations
There are, historically, a whole family of "other uses" templates for specific cases. {{tl|About}} is the standard hatnote for "other uses" and many of them can be specified using the {{tl|About}} template. However, the individual templates may be easier to use in certain contexts.

Here are the variations and (when appropriate) the equivalents using the {{tl|About}}, {{tl|Other uses}} or {{tl|For}} templates.
* {{tlx|Other uses2|PAGE1}} (disambiguous) → {{Other uses2|PAGE1}}
:Note: adds "(disambiguation)" to whatever is input as the PAGE1.
:Note: {{tlx|Other uses|PAGE1 (disambiguation)}} produces the same result.
* {{tlx|Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}} → {{Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2}}
:Note: same as {{tl|about}}, except it forces a second use to be noted if unspecified by parameters.
* {{tlx|Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}} → {{Two other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}
* {{tlx|Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}} {{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}
* {{tlx|Three other uses|<nowiki>|</nowiki>USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}} → {{Three other uses||USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3}}
* {{tlx|Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4}} → {{Three other uses|USE1|USE2|PAGE2|USE3|PAGE3|USE4|PAGE4}}

===="''For other uses of …, see …''"====
* {{tlx|Other uses of}} (disambiguous) → {{Other uses of}}

* {{tlx|Other uses of|TOPIC|PAGE1}} → {{Other uses of|TOPIC|PAGE1}}

===="''For more details on …, see …''"====
{{tlx|Details}} can supplement {{tlx|Main}} in summary sections, or can indicate more details in nonsummary sections:
* {{tlx|Details|Article|TOPIC}} → {{Details|Article|TOPIC}}

{{tl|Details3}} allows any text to links:
* {{tlx|Details3|<nowiki>[[article 1]], [[article 2]], and [[article 3]]</nowiki>|TOPIC}} → {{Details3|[[article 1]], [[article 2]], and [[article 3]]|TOPIC}}
