This template offers the choice to define the magical category of a (character) article. It can also automatically categorize a page under that category.

Parameters

  1. Whether or not magical (no parameter name and value is case insensitive):
    • no
    • yes
    • 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: eventhough the name of this template implies a default value of "yes", leaving the parameter empty or out resolves to "unknown" instead.

Syntax

{{Infobox Character/magical|value}}

Examples

Common use includes the only parameter with either values "yes" or "no":

{{Infobox Character/magical|yes}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|no}}
Yes [list all]
No [list all]


The case of the value is not important:

{{Infobox Character/magical|YES}}
Yes [list all]


You may leave "magical" undefined (which would raise the Characters of unknown magic maintenance task) by not specifying any valid value, so these all have the same result:

{{Infobox Character/magical}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|yes}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|true}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|aye, it's magic!}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|whatever}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|nope?}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|false}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|null}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|zero}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|powerless}}
{{Infobox Character/magical|not}}
unknown [list all]


The nocat parameter may be used to suppress automatic categorization like this (any value will do):

{{Infobox Character/magical|yes|nocat=true}}

This would render the same result as the first example above, but would not automatically categorize under Category:Magical characters. This feature works on all valid values.
