Template:Hatnote/doc

This template formats text into the standard stylistic for a wiki hatnote that produces a short note placed at the top of an article to provide disambiguation of closely related terms or summarise a topic, explaining its boundaries.

Often, but not always, this is a disambiguation link at the top of article pages. It places an HTML  /   block around the text entered as its only argument, which provides standardized formatting (contents are indented and italicized in most displays); it also isolates the contained code to make sure that it is interpreted correctly. This template is also used as the "meta-template" for additional specialized disambiguation link templates. The template does not automatically create links of any kind. Links and other desired formatting must be explicitly added, using normal wiki markup.
