Template:Broad-concept article
 | The present page holds the title of a primary topic, and an article needs to be written about it. It is believed to qualify as a broad-concept article. It may be written directly at this page or drafted elsewhere and then moved to this title. Related titles should be described in Broad-concept article, while unrelated titles should be moved to Template:Broad-concept article (disambiguation) . |  |
 | This template should not be substituted. |
Usage
{{Dabprimary}}
This template is used on disambiguation pages that do not have "(disambiguation)" in their page titles and are terms that may be described by a
primary topic
.
When the new primary-topic article is created in another namespace, such as
mainspace
, then it should be moved to the title of the page that is tagged with this template. Before that action, if the page tagged with this template holds unrelated topics, then they must be moved to a page with "(disambiguation)" in its title. All topics that are related to the primary topic may be described or listed in the new article, and not listed on a disambiguation page.
If unrelated topics do exist and become part of a Title (disambiguation) page, then the primary topic would be linked at the top of that page.
