"This page is about … Not to be confused with …"

edit

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

  • {{about-distinguish|USE1|PAGE1}}
  • {{about-distinguish|USE1|PAGE1|PAGE2}}
  • {{about-distinguish|USE1|PAGE1{{!}}DISPLAY-TEXT|PAGE2#SECTION|PAGE3}}

For cases requiring custom text, use {{about-distinguish2}} instead:

If the page's Wikidata item has the property of being an instance of "human", then the template will try to replace "It" in "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.
