Template:Categorizer

This template is used to add a tag to an infobox, labeling and automatically categorize the article under a category. A superlink is used to render a link to the target category.

{{categorizer | category = category name | catlabel = displayed text on categorylink | article = an article about the category | label = displayed text on articlelink }}

Parameters

• category: The target category to add this article to.
• catlabel: The text to display on the categorylink (defaults to "list all").
• article: The article that represents the target category (defaults to the label not to become linked).
• label: The text to display on the link to the article (defaults to the article pagename).
• nocat: Whether or not to suppress categorization under category (defaults to false, which means auto categorization).

Syntax

{{categorizer
 |category =
 |catlabel =
 |article =
 |label =
 |nocat =
}}

Examples

Common use of the categorizer includes both category and article parameters:

{{categorizer|category = Quetches|article = Quetch}}

Quetch ^{[list all]}

(and the page would be categorized under Category:Quetches)

Both the displayed texts on the category and article links can be customized using the catlabel and label parameters respectively:

{{categorizer
 |category = Quetches
 |catlabel = list members
 |article = Quetch
 |label = Men
}}

Men ^{[list members]}

(and the page would be categorized under Category:Quetches)

If the article parameter is left out, the categorizer won't render a link on the label:

{{categorizer|category = Quetches|label = Men}}

Men ^{[list all]}

(and the page would be categorized under Category:Quetches)

If both the article and label parameters are left out, the categorizer will render error text like this:

{{categorizer|category = Quetches}}

missing article ^{[list all]}

(and the page would be categorized under Category:Quetches, and templates would be categorized under Category:Categorizers missing an article)

If the category parameter is left out, regardless of parameter catlabel, the categorizer will render like this:

{{categorizer
 |catlabel = list members
 |article = Quetch
 |label = Men
}}

Men ^{[missing category]}

(and the page would not be categorized automatically, and templates would be categorized under Category:Categorizers missing a category)

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

{{categorizer|category = Quetches|article = Quetch|nocat = true}}

Quetch ^{[list all]}

(and the page would not be categorized under Category:Quetches)
