- funny button: {{Resolved|1=xx works. Thanks, that's all. (Stellar (talk) 03:40, 3 February 2008 (UTC)}}
- this code puts in the text: This article is about the author Thomas Harris. For other uses, see Meredyth/Sandpit (disambiguation).
- other way to handle disambiguation:
t y friend - U.S. Representative from Pennsylvaniat friend doesn't mention this person.
Consider (1) creating a dab page at t friend (disambiguation) (if it doesn't exist), and adding {{otherpersons|t friend}} to both pages.
Or (2) you could add {{About|x|the U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania|t y friend}} to one page and {{About|the U.S. Representative from Pennsylvania|x|t friend}} to the other.
(3) If they're about the same person, use (tag removed) merge|t friend}} and (tag removed) merge|t y friend}}
