To do
[edit]In no particular order:
- Add length check to for-see renderer to categorize long hatnotes
- Double-check for unimplemented modules and module sandboxes to poke at
- Actually implement Module:Labelled list hatnote in more templates like {{see also}} etc.
- Review hatnote-related CSS classes, with an eye to getting each documented and/or deprecated
- Look into the specifics of {{pagelist}}; there's substantial overlap with Module:Hatnote list and the former could use some significant cleanup
- Add more to this list!
Notes from a survey of the main group of hatnote templates
[edit]Template | Type | Based on | Lua | Implemented with | Uses TEXT | Supports selfref
|
List type | Rough usage count | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Template:About | Core | — | Yes | Module:About | No | No | For-see, or TEXT | 149k | |
Template:About-distinguish | Compound | {{about}} & {{distinguish}} | Yes | Module:About-distinguish | No | No | Or | 519 | |
Template:About-distinguish-text | Compound variant | {{about-distinguish}} | No | {{hatnote}} | Yes | No | TEXT | 515 | Forces TEXT for distinguish-list. |
Template:About other people | Compound | {{about}} & {{other people}} | Yes | Module:About other people | No | No | And | 405 | Successfully replaced {{other people3}}, with a similar form but narrower scope and better syntax |
Template:Broader | Core | — | Yes | Module:Broader | No | Yes | And | 752 | |
Template:Distinguish | Core | — | Yes | Module:Distinguish | No | No | Or, or TEXT | 82k | |
Template:For | Core | — | Yes | Module:For | No | Yes | And | 173k | Standalone for-see with and-list in the "see" part. |
Template:For multi | Variant | {{for}} | Yes | Module:Hatnote list | No | No | For-see | 6k | For-see list, filling niche of headless {{about}} more elegantly. |
Template:For-text | Variant | {{for}} | No | {{hatnote}} | Yes | No | For-see & TEXT | 478 | Forces TEXT for every "see" in for-see list. Seems inconsistent. Many uses fixed, some still can be replaced with {{for multi}}. |
Template:Further | Core | — | Yes | Module:Labelled list hatnote | No | Yes | And | 55k | |
Template:Further-text | Variant | {{further}} | No | {{hatnote}} | Yes | No | And & TEXT | 450 | Similar to {{further}} but forces TEXT for each item (which is ugly). Bulk of (simple) uses simplified to {{further}}, but more is possible. |
Template:Main | Core | — | Yes | Module:Labelled list hatnote | No | Yes | And | 318k | |
Template:Main list | Variant | {{main}} | Yes | Module:Main list | No | No | And | 1374 | Standalone for-see, like {{for}}, with preset "for" part. Template title misleading given difference from {{main}}? Might be better merged into {{main}}? |
Template:Other hurricanes | Variant | {{other uses}} and/or {{about}} | No | {{about}} | No | No | — | 321 | {{about}}-start followed by {{other uses}} list (supporting at most one item) with custom defaults and misordered parameters ({{other hurricanes|OTHERUSES|ABOUT}} ). Check for consistency in "other" family; this one uses "of the same name".
|
Template:Other people | Variant | {{other uses}} | Yes | Module:Other people | No | No | — | 34k | Behaviour similar to {{other uses}} with custom string, either "other people named X" or "other people with the same name" depending on parameterization. |
Template:Other places | Variant | {{other uses}} | Yes | Module:Other uses | No | No | And | 22k | Similar form to {{other uses}}, but "other places with the same name" |
Template:Other ships | Variant | {{other uses}} | Yes | Module:Other uses | No | No | And | 14k | Similar form to {{other uses}} but "other ships with the same name". |
Template:Other uses | Core | — | Yes | Module:Other uses | No | No | And | 63k | |
Template:Other uses of | Variant | {{other uses}} | Yes | Module:Other uses of | No | No | — | 1k | Slightly different phrasing of "other uses" so that disambiguation link gets context. Phrase and target params, with defaulting for lack of each. |
Template:Redirect | Core | — | Yes | Module:Redirect hatnote | No | Yes | For-see, or TEXT | 48k | |
Template:Redirect2 | Variant | {{redirect}} | Yes | Module:Redirect hatnote | No | Yes | For-see | 1k | As {{redirect}} but with two redirect items |
Template:Redirect-distinguish | Compound | {{redirect}} & {{distinguish}} | Yes | Module:Redirect-distinguish | No | No | Or | 3k | One redirect parameter |
Template:Redirect-distinguish-text | Compound variant | {{redirect-distinguish}} | No | {{hatnote}} | Yes | No | TEXT | 352 | Like {{redirect-distinguish}} but forces TEXT for second parameter |
Template:Redirect-distinguish-for | Compound variant | {{redirect-distinguish}} & {{for}} | No | {{hatnote}} | No | No | ??? | 38 | Like {{redirect-distinguish}} followed by a {{for}} in the same hatnote. Crazypants. |
Template:Redirect-multi | Variant | {{redirect}} | Yes | Module:Redirect-multi | No | Yes | For-see | 567 | Provides support for hatnotes listing ≥3 redirects. Has special defaulting and redirect parameters are preceded by a number-of-redirects parameter. |
Template:Redirect-several | Variant | {{redirect}} | No | {{hatnote}} | No | No | And | 131 | Similar to {{redirect}} but uses a message about "several" redirects, then a for-see, forcing "other uses" and then an and-list. Few uses, but they're pretty solid. |
Template:Redirect-synonym | Variant | {{redirect}} | No | {{hatnote}} | Yes | No | TEXT | 490 | REDIRECT, plus "REDIRECT may also refer to TEXT". |
Template:See also | Core | — | Yes | Module:Labelled list hatnote | No | Yes | And | 172k | |
Template:See also-text | Variant | {{see also}} | No | {{hatnote}} | Yes | No | And & TEXT | 668 | Like {{see also}}, but each item TEXT like {{further-text}}. |
Template:See introduction | Variant | {{for}} | No | {{For}} | No | No | — | 17 | A standalone for-see but hardcoded "for" and specially-defaulted "see"; exactly one parameter. |
Template:See Wiktionary | Variant | {{about}} | No | {{hatnote}} | No | No | For-see? | 150 | Not unlike {{about}} but specifically for referring to Wiktionary. |
Template:Similar names | Variant | {{other people}} | Yes | Module:Other uses | No | No | Or | 1867 | Similar form to {{other people}} but "other people with similar names". Possibly a merge candidate? |
Template:Year dab | Variant | {{about}} | No | {{hatnote}} | No | No | For-see? | 2k | Basically same form as {{about}} but hard-coded for the special needs of year pages for referring to their "(number)" counterparts and associated disambiguation pages. |
