Wikipedia:Database reports/Templates containing links to disambiguation pages edit
Ones that are OK:
| These templates | Which link to | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Lots of user templates | Example | The doc pages include {{Userspace linking templates}} which invokes {{Notable user|Example}} which links to Example |
| Several templates | Sailing vessel | The template doc includes a reference to the generic term, so a link to the dabpage is OK |
| Numerous template | Mass Rapid Transit | The template doc includes a reference to the generic term, so a link to the dabpage is OK |
| {{Asian topic}} | Armenian, Turkish, etc | These links only appear in the unused template; when the template is used, these become links to "Armenian XXX", "Turkish XXX", etc, e.g. Armenian cuisine, Turkish cuisine, etc. |
| {{African topic}} | Moroccan, Rwandan, etc | These links only appear in the unused template; when the template is used, these become links to "Moroccan XXX", "Rwandan XXX", etc, e.g. Moroccan cuisine, Rwandan cuisine, etc |
