 | This is a maintenance category, used for the maintenance of BTW. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. |
Template documentationUsage[edit]
This template should be placed at the top of categories used in the maintenance of BTW, rather than as part of the wiki — for example, at the top of Category:BattleTechWiki_administration.
Parameters[edit]
The following descriptions assume the template is transcluded on a page in the Category namespace.
|container=true/yes | Causes the template to add the page (the category) to Category:Container categories and include a {{Container category}} style message. To inhibit self-categorisation, set |container_category=no. |
|tracking=true/yes | Causes the template to add the page (the category) to Category:Tracking categories and include a {{Tracking category}} style message. To inhibit self-categorisation, set |tracking_category=no. |
|purpose= | To add a short explanation of the tracking category after the message, use |purpose=Short explanation. The |tracking= parameter must be set to true or yes to display. |
|desc= | Text supplied will be placed below the template with a boldfaced header of "Description:". The word "Description" can be replaced by something else, using |alt=Something else. |
|hidden=true/yes | Causes the template to hide the page (the category), add it to Category:Hidden categories and to include a {{Hidden category}} style message. Using |tracking=false/no or |tracking=true/yes, in addition, will give slightly different messages in the box. |
|empty=true/yes | Includes a {{Possibly empty category}} style message. In addition, to add a short explanation of the empty category after the message, use |empty_text=Short explanation. |
|shortcut1= | Enables a shortcut to the category to be displayed by the template. Multiple shortcuts are supported: from |shortcut1=, up to |shortcut5=. |
Examples[edit]
Code
{{Maintenance category
|shortcut=BTW:CN
|hidden=true
|tracking=false
|purpose=This category tracks pages tagged with {{tl|Citation needed}}.<!-- This text will not display since "tracking" is set to "false"-->
|desc=Category for articles (and other pages, such as portals and mainspace-intended templates) tagged as needing or more citations for verification, using the {{tlx|Citation needed}} template. Does not include discussion pages tagged with {{tlx|Talkfact}}.
}}
