This is a documentation subpage for Template:See also. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Transclusion_count' not found.
This template uses Lua: |
This template is used to create hatnotes to point to a small number of other related titles at the top of article sections (excluding the lead). It looks like this:
Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote".
Do not use this template on top of a page, where hatnotes are for disambiguation and not for related topics (according to WP:RELATED). Do not use this template inside the "See also" section at the end of an article, or for links to other articles or subsections of the same article within regular article text. Where subsections are linked to, Template:Section link may be suitable instead. For use on category pages, the corresponding template is Template:Category see also.
Refer to the examples below to see how the template handles link targets containing section links and commas.
Usage
- Basic usage
{{See also|page1|page2|page3|...}}
- All parameters
{{See also|page1|page2|page3| ... |label 1 = label 1|label 2 = label2|label 3 = label3| ... |l1 = label1|l2 = label2|l3 = label3| ... |selfref = yes|category = no}}
Parameters
This template accepts the following parameters:
-
1
,2
,3
, ... – the pages to link to. At least one page name is required. Categories and files are automatically escaped with the colon trick, and links to sections are automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section. -
label 1
,label 2
,label 3
, ...; orl1
,l2
,l3
, ...; optional labels for each of the pages to link to. -
selfref
– if set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references to Wikipedia. See Template:Selfref for more information. -
category
– if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category (Category:Hatnote templates with errors). This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the page to link to) is omitted.
Examples
-
{{See also|Article}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Article#Section}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Article#Section|label 1=Custom section label}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Article1|Article2|Article3}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Article1|Article,2|Article3}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Article1|l1=Custom label 1|Article2|l2=Custom label 2}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Veni, vidi, vici|Julius Caesar}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Veni, vidi, vici|Julius Caesar#Civil war}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Julius Caesar#Civil war|Veni, vidi, vici}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". -
{{See also|Julius Caesar#Civil war|Crossing the Rubicon}}
→ Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote".
Errors
If no page names are supplied, the template outputs the following message with the (help) wikilink pointing to the "Errors" section of this page:
- Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote".
If you see this error message, it is for one of three reasons:
- No parameters were specified (the template code was
{{See also}}
with no pipe character nor page to link to). Please use{{See also|page}}
instead. - Some parameters were specified, but no page names were included. For example, the template text
{{See also|selfref=yes}}
will produce this error. Please use (for example){{See also|page|selfref=yes}}
instead. - A page name was specified, but it contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code
{{See also|1+1=2|2+2=4}}
will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using1=
,2
, etc., before the page name, like this:{{See also|1=1+1=2|2=2+2=4}}
.
If you see this error message and are unsure of what to do, please post a message on the help desk (WP:HD), and someone should be able to help you.
