Line 2: I think this is probably the best place to raise the issue, although it doesn't directly have anything to do with this help page: Is there any way (code) to supress categorization? Many templates contain a category tag as part of the template. This appeared to be a smart idea when I started it, but it also sorts "wrong" articles into the respective categories, namely articles of an administrative nature such as this Help article that contain the templates in question for one reason or another. Simply disabling wikicode won't work as the templates would not display correctly (I assume). Any ideas anybody?

I'll keep plinking away at it. [[User:JubalHarshaw|JubalHarshaw]] ([[User talk:JubalHarshaw|talk]]) 14:40, 27 March 2018 (EDT) − :: Looks like I've got it! I created a template, CatMainOther, with documentation. I've modified one template and verified it no longer categories this help page, but does still categorize main pages.

I'll look into increasing the functionality of the suppression template to address other namespaces, but I feel it's a good start.

The template itself is a bit of code that allows you to have the article display different text or apply different categories depending on whether or not you are in the main article space, so you could have the page apply a different category (or do anything really) in spaces other than the main article space.
