Entries which do not fit neatly into any section should be placed in an "Other uses" section or subsection, at the bottom of the page or section (but above any [[#Ordering|"See also" section]]). The "Other uses" section should be relatively short; if it becomes excessively long, the page may need to be reorganized. Uncategorized entries should {{em|never}} be left at the top of the page, with the exception of one or two primary topics as stated [[#Order of entries|above]].

Use sections rather than bold text (see {{section link|UniWiki:Manual of Style/Accessibility|Headings}}). Using more than one level may be necessary, as on [[Wikipedia:Aurora (disambiguation)|Aurora (disambiguation)]]. Always use <nowiki>==Level two==</nowiki> as the highest-level header. Section headings should not include links. See [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Writing better articles#Headings|Wikipedia:Writing better articles &sect; Headings]] for more.

'''Thingamajig''' may refer to:


{{fake heading|sub=2|Science}}
On longer lists, {{tl|tocright}} may be used to move the table of contents to the right hand side of the page. This reduces the amount of white space and may improve the readability of the page. (For more information, see [[Wikipedia:Help:Section#Floating the TOC|Wikipedia:Floating the TOC]].) If used, {{tl|tocright}} should be placed after the lead section of the wiki markup and immediately before the first section heading. Users of screen readers do not expect any text between the TOC and the first heading, and having no text above the TOC is confusing. (For more information, see {{section link|UniWiki:Manual of Style/Accessibility|Article structure}}.)
* [[Thingamajig|Thingamajig (biology)]], an invasive plant used as ground cover
* [[Thingamajig|Thingamajig (chemistry)]], an isotope of chlorine
* [[Thingamajig|Thingamajig (physics)]], a kind of pulsar
 
{{fake heading|sub=2|World music}}
* [[Thingamajig|Thingamajig (Peru)]], a wind instrument similar to an aulos
* [[Thingamajig|Thingamajig (Qatar)]], a seven-stringed musical instrument
* [[Thingamajig|Thingamajig (UK)]], a wind instrument, similar to, but longer than the Peruvian one
