Template:About2
- This article is about {{{1}}}. {{{2}}}
Usage
{{About2}} is a rarely used hatnote on Bhamwiki, and so should be placed at the top of an article, linking the reader to articles with similar titles or concepts that they may have been seeking instead.
The difference between the About and About2 templates is that the latter allows free form text, giving the ability to specify more than one additional articles to link to. This comes at the cost of having to properly format the text yourself. The use of About2 is generally not recommended, but occasionally can't be avoided.
This template does not have named parameters, instead relying solely on the order of the parameters. The first very briefly specifies what the article is about. The second parameter is be used to specify other entities with similar names. The recommended format for the second parameter is:
For (description of foo), see [[foo]]; for (description of bar), see [[bar]].
