"This page is about … Not to be confused with …"

{{About-distinguish}} is a template for noting other uses when there could be confusion with another topic.

For cases requiring custom text, use {{about-distinguish2}} instead:

If the page's Wikidata item has the property of being an instance of "human", then the template will try to replace "It" in "It is not to be confused with" with a more appropriate pronoun, based on the value of the "sex or gender" property of the item.

template for noting other uses when there could be confusion with another topic. For a version with custom text instead of links to other pages, see Template:about-distinguish-text
