Module:Redirect hatnote
Appearance
![]() | This Lua module is used on approximately 59,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
![]() | This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be relatively bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
![]() | This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing. |
![]() | This module depends on the following other modules: |
This module produces a hatnote for disambiguating a page that is linked to by a given redirect. It implements the {{redirect}} hatnote template.
Usage from wikitext
This module cannot be used directly from wikitext. Please use the {{redirect}} or {{redirect2}} templates instead.
Usage from Lua
To use this module from Lua, first load the module.
local mRedirectHatnote = require('Module:Redirect hatnote')
The module can then be used with the following syntax:
mRedirectHatnote._redirect(redirect, data, options, titleObj)
