Template:Infobox User/gender

This template offers a multiple choice for defining the gender category of your userpage. It can also automatically categorize the page under that category.

Parameters

1. The selected gender from the following values (no parameter name and values are case insensitive):
   • male
   • female
   • hide
   • 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: If you wish not to expose your gender, use the "hide" value.

Syntax

{{Infobox User/gender|value}}

Examples

Any of the above values may be used like this:

{{Infobox User/gender|male}}
{{Infobox User/gender|female}}

Male ^{[list all]}

Female ^{[list all]}

The case of the value is not important:

{{Infobox User/gender|feMALE}}

Female ^{[list all]}

If you don't want to expose your gender, you could specify "hide", like this:

{{Infobox User/gender|hide}}

hidden ^{[list all]}

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

{{Infobox User/gender}}
{{Infobox User/gender|}}
{{Infobox User/gender|both}}
{{Infobox User/gender|uncle}}
{{Infobox User/gender|yellow}}

unknown ^{[list all]}

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

{{Infobox User/gender|male|nocat=true}}

This would render the same result as the first example above, but would not automatically categorize under Category:Male users. This feature works both on valid values and the maintenance task mentioned above.
