Category:Navigation pages

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories.

Navigation pages are used for topics which do not have standalone articles, and which may or may not yet meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria for articles, but for which relevant information is present across multiple articles.

These pages are distinct from disambiguation pages in that, while disambiguation pages list different topics that share the same name, navigation pages include a list of articles or sections that all contain information on the exact same topic. Notably, they apply in situations where a non-notable topic is covered in more than one article, that topic can't be confused with anything else (making disambiguation unnecessary), and there turns out to be two or more equally sensible redirect targets for a user's search terms.

Do not include this category manually in articles; the {{Navigation page}} template automatically does this.
