Instructions for {{Dab page}}
{{dab page}} is an incredibly simple template for placing a disambiguation note at the top of a page.

{{dab page}} can be contrasted with {{you may}}. {{dab page}} is for linking to a disambiguation page, whereas {{you may}} gives readers a choice between two articles.

It's preferable to use a template for this purpose rather than typing in the raw code, for reasons enumerated here.

Usage

Just type {{dab page|pagename}} and you're done!

For instance, typing {{dab page|Flashback}} results in:

   You may wish to consult Flashback for other, similarly-named things.
