| The first line of a disambiguation page should be the '''introductory line''' ([[#Introductory line|see below]]). If there is a link to the '''primary topic''' ([[#Linking to a primary topic|see below]]), that line should appear before the introductory line. Both of these should begin its own line. | | The first line of a disambiguation page should be the '''introductory line''' ([[#Introductory line|see below]]).

| When a dictionary definition should be included (see {{section link|Wikipedia:Disambiguation|What not to include}}), rather than writing a text entry, create a cross-link to [[Wiktionary]], one of the [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects|Wikimedia sister projects]]. To do this, use one of these Wiktionary link templates on the first line:
| |
|
| |
| * {{tlx|Wiktionary}} can be used with up to five optional parameters: {{tlc|wiktionary|WORD|WORD2|...|WORD5}}. This can be useful for linking dictionary entries with multiple capitalizations (e.g., ''star'', ''Star'', and ''STAR''). With no parameters, the template defaults to using the current page's name with a lowercase first letter.
| |
| * {{tlx|Wiktionary pipe}} will behave like a [[WP:PIPE|piped link]]: {{tlc|wiktionary pipe|WORD|{{var|optional display name}}}}.
| |
|
| |
| Be sure to check the links created by these templates, as Wiktionary's [[case sensitivity]] sometimes differs from Wikipedia's. Most notably, Wiktionary uses [[wikt:WT:CAPS|proper capitalization]] for the first letter of its entries, unlike Wikipedia's use of an uppercase first letter for each page name.
