==="See also" section<span id="See also section"></span>=== {{shortcut|MOS:SEEALSO|MOS:ALSO}} {{for|the placement of "see also" notes at the top of an article|CP:RELATED}} {{see also|Chabadpedia:Manual of Style/Lists#Related topics (navigational lists)}} A "See also" section is a useful way to organize [[Chabadpedia:Manual of Style/Linking|internal links]] to related or comparable articles and "[[MOS:BTW|build the web]]". However, the section itself is not required; many high-quality and comprehensive articles do not have one. The section should be a bulleted list, sorted either logically (for example, by subject matter), chronologically, or alphabetically. Consider using {{tlx|Columns-list}} or {{tlx|Div col}} if the list is lengthy. '''Contents:''' Links in this section should be relevant and limited to a reasonable number. Whether a link belongs in the "See also" section is ultimately a matter of editorial judgment and [[Chabadpedia:What "Ignore all rules" means#Use common sense|common sense]]. One purpose of "See also" links is to enable readers to explore tangentially related topics; however, articles linked should be related to the topic of the article or be in the same defining category. For example, the article on [[Jesus]] might include a link to [[List of people claimed to be Jesus]] because it is related to the subject but not otherwise linked in the article. The article on [[Tacos]] might include [[Fajita]] as another example of Mexican cuisine. {{shortcut|MOS:NOTSEEALSO|MOS:NOTSEEAGAIN}} {{anchor|NOTSEEALSO}}The "See also" section should {{em|not}} include [[Chabadpedia:Red link|red links]], links to [[Chabadpedia:Disambiguation|disambiguation pages]] (unless used in a disambiguation page for [[MOS:DABSEEALSO|further disambiguation]]), or [[Chabadpedia:External links|external links]] (including links to pages within [[Chabadpedia:Wikimedia sister projects|Wikimedia sister projects]]). As a general rule, the "See also" section should {{em|not}} repeat links that appear in the article's body.<ref>The community has rejected past proposals to do away with this guidance. See, for example, [[Chabadpedia talk:Manual of Style/Layout/Archive 12#RfC: remove the proscription against previously-linked terms in the "See also" section?|this RfC]].</ref> Editors should provide a brief annotation when a link's relevance is not immediately apparent, when the meaning of the term may not be generally known, or when the term is ambiguous. For example: :* [[Joe Shmoe]]{{snd}}made a similar achievement on April 4, 2005 :* [[Ischemia]]{{snd}}restriction in blood supply The "{{snd}}" dash can be generated using {{tlx|snd}}, If the linked article has a [[CP:Short description|short description]] then you can use {{tl|Annotated link}} to automatically generate an annotation. For example, {{tlx|Annotated link|Winston Churchill}} will produce: :* {{annotated link|Winston Churchill}} '''Other internal links:''' {{tlx|Portal}} links are usually placed in this section. As an alternative, {{tlx|Portal bar}} may be placed with the end matter navigation templates. See relevant template documentation for correct placement. '''Heading name:''' The standardized name for this section is "See also".
