Template:Hatnote
A hatnote should be used if the title of the page could have been the title of another page or a redirect to another page, or if the title of the page is confusingly similar to the title of another page.
A hatnote should not be used for "see also" links to merely related pages; for such links, use a "See also" section at the bottom of the page.
There should not be a need for a hatnote of the form, "XYZ redirects here. For other streets that have been named XYZ, see XYZ (disambiguation)." If XYZ is not the current name of the street, and there are other streets that have been named XYZ, then the page XYZ should be the disambiguation page directly, not a redirect.
If a hatnote would contain two or more links, consider making a disambiguation page instead and putting that in the hatnote.
A hatnote should be placed at the very top of the page, before the {{street}} infobox. This is important for narrow windows, such as phones, in which the infobox takes the full width instead of floating right.
