Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
Usage
Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". is a commonly used hatnote template on Wikipedia, and should be placed at the top of an article (but following Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9"., if present), linking the reader to other articles with similar titles or concepts that they may have been seeking instead. The template has several formats, including:
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
The template {{For-multi}} produces the same hatnote, but without the initial This template is about.
Parameters
Alternately, a |section=yes parameter can be added to the Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". template for use at the top of a section. When using this parameter, the wording in the template changes to specify that it is being used in a section:
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
- Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9". → Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "9".
A |text= option adds text to the end; this should only be used when truly necessary, when the other hatnote templates listed below don't suffice.
The |selfref=yes option marks the entire hatnote as a Wikipedia self-reference, causing it to be omitted when the page content is reused outside of Wikipedia (see {{self reference}} and MOS:SELFREF for more details).
For more options, see section "TemplateData" below.
