Template:About-distinguish2 - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses Lua:

Module:About-distinguish

This template uses the Wikidata properties:

sex or gender (P21) (see uses)
instance of (P31) (see uses)

{{About-distinguish}} is a template for noting other uses when there could be confusion with another topic.

{{About-distinguish|USE|PAGE}} →
This page is about USE. It is not to be confused with PAGE.
{{About-distinguish-text|USE|TEXT}} →
This page is about USE. It is not to be confused with TEXT.

{{About-distinguish-text|USE|TEXT1|TEXT2|TEXT3}} (can list up to five items) →
This page is about USE. It is not to be confused with TEXT1, TEXT2, or TEXT3.

Suppose the page's Wikidata item has the property of being an instance of "human." In that case, the template will try to replace "It" with "It is not to be confused with" with a more appropriate pronoun based on the value of the "sex or gender" property of the item.
