Template:DisambigNoTitle

The default disambiguation template (Template:Disambig) uses the PAGENAME parameter to display the name of the page in the page. This is fine, except that when the name of the page is something like "Chicken (disambigation)" you wind up with something like: "This article is a disambiguation page for Chicken (disambiguation)" instead of the correct "This article is a disambiguation page for Chicken."

There were two obvious solutions to this. The first is to rename the disambiguation page so it does not include the word "disambiguation." This would have made the new title of the DP in the example, "Chicken." The problem with this is that there was already a page called "Chicken" and I really didn't want to go changing it, and then changing all of the references to it throughout the wiki.

The other solution was this. Copy the template and eliminate the pagename reference. Here it is. Please be sure when using it that you include the page title in the article text, since it is no longer included in the template!
