+This lint **warns by default**. This lint detects when an [intra-doc link] fails to get resolved. For example:
+
+ [intra-doc link]: linking-to-items-by-name.html
 
 ```rust
-/// I want to link to [`Inexistent`] but it doesn't exist!
+/// I want to link to [`Nonexistent`] but it doesn't exist!
 pub fn foo() {}
 ```
 
 You'll get a warning saying:
 
 ```text
-error: `[`Inexistent`]` cannot be resolved, ignoring it...
+warning: `[Nonexistent]` cannot be resolved, ignoring it.
+ --> test.rs:1:24

+  |                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ cannot be resolved, ignoring
+```
+
+It will also warn when there is an ambiguity and suggest how to disambiguate:
+
+```rust
+/// [`Foo`]
+pub fn function() {}
+
+pub enum Foo {}
+
+pub fn Foo(){}
+```
+
+```text
+warning: `Foo` is both an enum and a function

+help: to link to the enum, prefix with the item type

+help: to link to the function, add parentheses
