Extension:Disambiguator

Disambiguator is designed to make disambiguation pages easier to work with programmatically. It allows you to designate all disambiguation pages with the __DISAMBIG__ magic word (or an equivalent alias), which then marks them as such in the database. This allows other extensions to handle disambiguation pages as a separate class of page.

Installation

 * 1) Download the latest snapshot and extract it to your extensions directory.
 * 2) Add  to LocalSettings.php.
 * 3) The extension should now be active.

Usage
Once Disambiguator is installed, the best way to use it is to add the __DISAMBIG__ magic word to a template that is then included in all of your disambiguation pages.

Once the magic word is in place, your disambiguation pages will all have the 'disambiguation' page property assigned to them in the database. This property resides in the page_props table.

You will also have a new Special page, Special:Disambiguator, that lists all of the pages on your wiki that link to disambiguation pages. (This is a replacement for the old Special:Disambiguations page which is deprecated.)

Possible future plans

 * Add an API that allows querying whether or not a page is a disambiguation page.
 * Add an option to color code links to disambiguation pages
