This template is invoking the disambiguation link Paulo Alves in the article, UEFA Euro 1996 qualifying Group 6, rather than the correct article, Paulo Alves (footballer, born 1969). A template that invokes a disambiguation link that can not be fixed is, unfortunately, a broken template. Please fix the template so that it does not invoke this disambiguation link, and provide clear instructions for finding and fixing other disambiguation links that the template may be invoking. bd2412 T 14:20, 26 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

After extensive digging, I figured out that the link occurs in Module:Goalscorers/data/UEFA Euro 1996 qualifying. Please note in the documentation of this template where these links can be found if others become ambiguous in the future. bd2412 T 14:54, 26 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
BD2412, sorry for any confusion, the Euro article is not actually calling this template. The code {{#invoke:Goalscorers| means it is calling a Lua module, which in this case is Module:Goalscorers (which has documentation listing all the subpages). S.A.

Thanks for your answer. Can that be noted in the documentation here? If another listed name becomes a disambiguation page, the first place disambiguators are going to check will be this template. bd2412 T 19:20, 26 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Spacing issues

edit

This template is creating spacing issues when used following a paragraph of prose, as seen at 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup#Goalscorers. Can this be fixed without forcing the text to be in a wrapped template, which creates difficulty for some editing styles? SounderBruce 05:56, 15 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
