![]() | This template uses Lua: |
This template acts like {{Other people}}, but includes an extra parameter that describes the subject of the article.
Usage
The first parameter is mandatory; omitting it produces an error message, and a maintenance category that can be suppressed by supplying a category
parameter with a falsy value. For example:
{{About other people|category=false}}
→ Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:About' not found.
The second parameter defines the ambiguous name, changing the "other people" text to include it and improving the default disambiguation page:
{{About other people|an example person}}
→ Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:About' not found.{{About other people|an example person|Jane Doe}}
→ Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:About' not found.
As with {{Other people}}, the message produced when the second parameter is defined can be customized using the named
parameter. For example, named=titled
can be useful:
{{About other people|some "Lord Byron" or other|Lord Byron|Baron Byron|named=titled}}
→ Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:About' not found.
The third and any further parameters define custom targets for the hatnote:
{{About other people|ABOUT|NAME|PAGE1}}
→ Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:About' not found.{{About other people|ABOUT||PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}
→ Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:About' not found.
