{{About user}} makes the important distinction between a Wiki page about an OWOT user and a user page. To use it, transclude the template at the top of Wiki pages about OWOT users and user pages, and it will automatically create a clarifying hatnote.

On a Wiki page

This is the article about the user on OWOT. For the user page of the user on this Wiki, see User:About user/doc.
On a user page
{{About user}} →
This is the user page of the user on this Wiki. For the page about the OWOT user, see About user/doc.

If the link is incorrect, you can manually specify the correct page name:

On a user page
