It appears that the style of hatnotes has changed. I've looked at various templates but I haven't managed to find where this change was actually made. Was there a discussion before the change was made? Un assiolo ( talk) 19:35, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
"About-Distinguish-For" would be a very useful template. Several articles I recall would benefit from hatnotes of that particular nature. Here's one example:
/info/en/?search=Departure_(2015_film)
An indie film stub, which needs development. Regardless, the hatnote:
This article is about the 2015 film. Not to be confused with Departures (2008 film). For other films with the same title, see Departure (disambiguation) § Films.
There might be better examples, but in this instance:
While it could be done all freeform with one of those custom text ones, I was kind of surprised not to see one of these amongst the lists of potential hatnote options, considering all of the other combinations.
And I found this in the archive, which looked suitable, but unfortunately it doesn't exist:
Testing //composed hatnote|about|SUBJECT|distinguish|SIMILARCONCEPT|for|USE|PAGE|text|TEXT\\
.
But that would be the ideal About-Distinguish-For.
I dunno if there's one that I'm overlooking somewhere OR some way to squeeze a "For-custom-text" hatnote template WITHIN an About-Distinguish one, by any chance…? Dubious. -- Cinemaniac86 Talk Stalk 15:56, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Specifically for this article. I find hatnotes on multiple lines looks trashy and like we don't know what we're doing, I think both hatnotes in this scenario assume the audience is stupid but it's got consensus so I just want to tidy it up if possible.
