== Parameters ==
{{Rcat shell|
Set {{para|nocat|true}} if you do not want the [[:Category:Disambiguation]] to be set. You would do this, for instance, if {{tlx|disambig}} were used on a talk page mentioning the usage (or lack of usage) on the main article page. The usage would then be {{tlx|disambig|nocat{{=}}true}}.
{{R from move}}
 
{{R from modification}}
==Usage==
{{R from documentation page}}
{{Dabnav}}
{{R to documentation page}}
 
{{R from template shortcut}}
The {{tlx|disambig}} template is placed at the bottom of articles which exist to help readers find other articles with similar names (or which perhaps should have the same name).  This concept is called [[Help:disambiguation|disambiguation]].
}}
 
Disambiguation is used with common words such as {{w|Cross (disambiguation)|cross}}, {{w|Life (disambiguation)|life}}, and {{w|work}}.
 
This is the most general-purpose disambiguation template; consider using a more-specific alternative if one exists, such as
* {{tlx|Hndis}}, for people's names
* {{tlx|geodis}}, for place names
 
This template automatically adds articles to [[:Category:Disambiguation]].
 
===For those who can't remember the name===
For those who can't remember how the name is abbreviated both {{tlx|Disambiguation}} and {{tlx|dab}}, are "synonyms".
