It is used in sections for which there is also a separate more comprehensive list article on the subject.
Usage
Basic usage
{{main list|article}}
With a topic
{{main list|article 1|article 2}}
All parameters
{{main list|article 1|article 2|category=no}}
Parameters
This template accepts the following parameters:
1 - the page to link to (required). Categories and files are automatically escaped with the colon trick, and links to sections are automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section.
2 - a second page (optional). Same implications as the first parameter apply.
category - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category (Category:Hatnote templates with errors). This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the page to link to) is omitted.
If you see this error message, it is for one of three reasons:
No parameters were specified (the template code was {{main list}}). Please use {{main list|page}} instead.
The page name was specified, but it contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code {{main list|2+2=4}} will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using 1= before the page name, like this: {{main list|1=2+2=4}}.
You tried to access Module:Main list directly by using {{#invoke:Main list|mainList|text}}. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use {{main list|text}} instead.
If you see this error message and are unsure of what to do, please post a message on the help desk, and someone should be able to help you.
For cases where the present context provides no short list to which this template "a more comprehensive list" wording could refer, see the template {{Main listing}}, which is just a pointer to the list article.
This template prefers block formatting of parameters.
