Template:Container category

This is a container category. It should contain only subcategories.

Template documentation

Usage

Tag categories with {{Container category}} to inform editors that they should not contain anything other than subcategories.

The categories will be added to Category:Container categories. If the template is transcluded on a page outside of the category namespace, the page will not be added to Category:Container categories.

Do not substitute this template.

Categories that are part of Wikipedia administration should be tagged with {{Wikipedia category}} instead.

Placing right-aligned content beside the template

Use {{Container category |right-aligned content}} to place right-aligned content – such as {{portal}} (to provide a link or links to related portal or portals) and/or {{Commons category}} (to provide a link to the same or a similarly-named category at the Commons) – beside the template. If more than one box is included, ensure the widest one appears first, otherwise overlapping may occur.

  Example

{{Container category |{{Commons category|writers}}}} produces:

Template:Commons category This is a container category. It should contain only subcategories.
