Where to place glossend template

Resolved

 – Answered.

In List of rugby league terms I put "glossend" at the end of each section of the list, so e.g.

==A== 
{{gloss}} 
''some terms listed'' 
{{glossend}} 

==B== 
{{gloss}} 
''some terms listed'' 
{{glossend}} 

Is this right or should "glossend" only come as the end of "Z"? LunarLander // talk // 13:28, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

You got it right. Each {{gloss}} opens a <dl>, and each {{glossend}} closes it with </dl>. — SMcCandlish   Talk⇒〈°⌊°〉 Contribs. 09:05, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

You should use {{defn}} for your defenition; nesting : inside {gloss} and {glossend} results in incorrect markup due to double nesting. — Edokter (talk) — 11:25, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Sub-terms

I have a need to use sub-terms of a term in a glossary. I have created {{subterm}}and {{subdefn}} for this purpose. I have also created {{glosslink}} and {{glossback}} for the purpose of inserting reference-style backlinks so that readers can easily navigate back to the place in hte article they came from. I would appreciate someone who knows template code to check what I have done for sanity. SpinningSpark 16:12, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms not working (December 2016)

For some reason this template isn't displaying correctly after the Glossary_of_cue_sports_terms ~646th entry on the page. 24.246.23.7 (talk) 20:56, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

Seems to be okay now. It was too many parser calls on the page. This was resolved by replacing simpler definition entries with non-templated markup.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ<  16:37, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

Please replace all instances of "glycosylated hemoglobin" with "glycated hemoglobin", to use the current standard nomenclature. Thank you! AldoPioManuzio (talk) 21:17, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
