This is a hatnote that can link the reader to other articles with similar titles or concepts that they may have been seeking instead.

{{Distinguish}} serves a similar purpose, but it displays the text "Not to be confused with <1>" instead.

{{about|topic of current page|topic of other page|name of other page}}

For example, {{about|the user|the bot|Kojimabot}} will output

The first parameter can be omitted, for example {{about|the bot|Kojimabot}}, in which case the first sentence will not be displayed:

Hatnote that outputs "This page is about <1>. For <2>, see <3>."
