Forum:How (not) to use the Disambig template

The Disambig template is used solely for the purpose when one has multiple pages with the same potential name. For a Wikipedia-style example, there are multiple meanings for the word "viola." We might have three different pages, one about the female name, one about the musical instrument, and one about the flower. We would station a page named "Viola" that says "Viola may refer to:" and list all of the different meanings and links to their articles. The articles that contain the actual content would be called "Viola (female given name)", "Viola (instrument)", and "Viola (flower)".

Now, when we have a page like...dinosaur, there are NOT multiple Items named Dinosaur. "Dinosaur" is simply an informal term that generalizes six Items used in Rank 4. Therefore, Dinosaur is not a disambig page.

And, in the case where we really do use the disambig template, yes, it should go on the bottom. Wikipedia readers would find that more comfortable. 02:08, December 9, 2009 (UTC)
