Đ, a letter used in central South Slavic languages and Vietnamese. Its lowercase counterpart is đ. It is sometimes transcripted as dj as in Franjo Tudjman. In Vietnamese, "Đ" is pronounced like the English 'D', the dash serves to distinguish it from the Vietnamese 'D' with no dash, which is pronounced like the English 'Z' or the English 'Y'.
Ɖ, Unicode codepoint 393, U+0189 is the Latin capital letter African D.
These three are all in fact separate letters which just happen to be written almost the same, much like the old Cyrillic abbreviation for the Soviet Union, СССР (transliterated SSSR), happens to resemble Latin CCCP.
A similar symbol appears as a ligature for DE ("of") in old Spanish inscriptions.
This is a disambiguation page — a navigational aid which lists other pages that might otherwise share the same title. If an article link referred you here, you might want to go back and fix it to point directly to the intended page.
Disambiguation serves a single purpose: to let the reader choose among different pages that closely relate to various meanings of a particular term (some of which might logically utilize said term in a titular fashion).
Disambiguation should not be confused with the merging of duplicate articles (articles with different titles, but regarding the very same topic, for example "Gas Turbine" and "Gas turbine", or "loo" and "restroom").
Disambiguation descriptions should not be created for subjects whose only articles are on pages of sister projects, even if the disambiguation page already exists (e.g., the poll on 9/11 victims).
