==How to use Disambiguations==
In the cases of multiple identical article names, a small differentiation is needed between the different pages, and a ''disambiguation page '' is put in place of the original article. If it's a very small number of conflicting articles, then it's possible to just use the title for the more prominent one, and then linking the less important page at the top of the prominent one.
When the disambiguation is an acronym, then it's most often best to just use the full name as article names instead of any more "advanced" changes.
===Disambiguation Pages===
These disambiguation pages are basically just a list of articles on a page, but they should be made similarly, and this is how you make one:
----
'''Topic''', '''alternate name''' and a potential '''tertiary name''' may refer to any of the following:
* [[Link]], explanatory text
* [[Another Link]], explanatory text
* [[Link (with explanation)]], explanatory text
* Etc.
<nowiki>[[Category:Disambiguations]]</nowiki>
----
Disambiguation "list" pages should be added to this category: [[:Category:Disambiguations]].
