|noanchor = yes}}
Produces a table row identical to the one above, but does not include and anchors. This method is great for entries which are actually just aliases lining to other entries.
{{/Glossary item
|term = Entry title
| ET
| Title
| Entry
| Fourth
| anchor1 = entry title
| anchor2 = Entry Title
| anchor3 = Entry titles
| anchor4 = Entry Titles
|desc = Here you put the definition and links to further information I.e. disambiguation pages and articles etc.
|updated = 2015-01-25
|added = 2014-02-13}}
Produces again a table row visually identical to the one above, but this one also includes anchor for four common misspellings of the title. This can be used for backwards compatibility to previous glossary entry anchors. This is also got practice in sober cases to include common spelling variations.
