 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:In category. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |

Up to five categories are supported.
To override the "and" with another conjunction, use the |and= parameter.
For example, {{In category|BattleTechWiki|BattleTechWiki how-to}} would produce:
This template does nothing to change the functionality of the documented template: in particular, it will not actually apply the categories. Its purpose is simply to produce a note about what the documented template does, but you will need to implement the template's actual functionality separately.
