This template is primarily used to add disambiguation links (''dab'' is Wikipedia shorthand for "disambiguation") to the top of article pages. It places an HTML <code>div-</code> / <code>div</code> block around the material given as its only argument, which provides standardized formatting (contents are indented and italicized in most displays); it also isolates the contained code to make sure that it is interpreted correctly. | This template is primarily used to add ''disambiguation links'' (''dab'' is Wikipedia shorthand for "disambiguation") to the top of article pages.

This template is also used as the "meta-template" for additional specialized disambiguation link templates; see [[Wikipedia:Otheruses templates (example usage)]] for a list. | |||
Contrary to what its name may imply, the template does not automatically create links of any kind. Links and other desired formatting must be explicitly added, using normal [[Wikipedia:Cheatsheet|Wikipedia markup]]. | |||
