This template offers a multiple choice for defining the gender category of a (character) article. It can also automatically categorize a page under that category.
Parameters
- The selected gender from the following values (no parameter name and values are case insensitive):
- male
- female
- none
- any other (non)empty value defaults to: unknown
- nocat: Whether or not to suppress categorization under the chosen category (defaults to false, which means auto categorization).
Note: more category values should be discussed on the discussion page.
Syntax
{{Infobox Character/gender|value}}
Examples
Any of the above values may be used like this:
{{Infobox Character/gender|male}} {{Infobox Character/gender|female}}
The case of the value is not important:
{{Infobox Character/gender|mALE}}
- Male [list all]
Some characters have an undetermined "gender" if they aren't really alive, for these the gender could specify "none", which wouldn't display anything:
{{Infobox Character/gender|none}}
Instead, this would still categorize the page under the Inanimate characters category, inline with the other values above.
You may leave the "gender" undefined (which would raise the Characters of unknown gender maintenance task) by not specifying any valid value, so these all have the same result:
{{Infobox Character/gender}} {{Infobox Character/gender|}} {{Infobox Character/gender|both}} {{Infobox Character/gender|uncle}} {{Infobox Character/gender|yellow}}
- unknown [list all]
The nocat parameter may be used to suppress automatic categorization like this (any value will do):
{{Infobox Character/gender|male|nocat=true}}
This would render the same result as the first example above, but would not automatically categorize under Category:Male characters. This feature works both on valid values and the maintenance task mentioned above.
