Usage
ᱥᱟᱯᱲᱟᱣThis template can be used on template documentation pages to ensure that any given template sandbox does not populate its main template's category(ies).
This template has two unnamed parameters, |1= and |2=. Near the bottom of a /doc page where the categories are usually placed, install this template as follows:
<includeonly>{{sandbox other||
<!-- Categories go below this line; interwikis go to Wikidata -->
[[Category:(first category)]]
[[Category:(second category)]]
(more categories if needed)
}}</includeonly>
- Usage of an empty first parameter (two pipes together,
||, at the end of the first line of code above) essentially means|1=(do nothing)and will not allow the sandbox page to populate the listed categories. - Note that the closing template braces (
}}) are placed just before the </includeonly> tag. This is the same as|2=(category comment and categories). In "long hand" it may appear as follows:
<includeonly>{{sandbox other|1=<!-- keep sandbox out of categories -->|2=
<!-- Categories go below this line; interwikis go to Wikidata -->
[[Category:(first category)]]
[[Category:(second category)]]
(more categories if needed)
}}</includeonly>
