This is a documentation subpage for Template:Container category.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is used on approximately 45,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

Usage[edit]

Tag categories with {{Container category}} to inform editors that they should not contain anything other than subcategories.

The categories will be added to Category:Container categories. If the template is transcluded on a page outside of the category namespace, the page will not be added to Category:Container categories.

Categories that are part of Wikipedia administration should be tagged with {{Maintenance category}} instead.

See also[edit]

{{Category diffuse}} – for noting that included pages should be categorised to the category's sub-categories, if possible
{{Parent-only stub category}} – a similar template for use in stub categories

Other category-header templates[edit]

A category header template which adds a notice that explains that the category is a [[:Category:Container categories|container category]] which should contain only [[Wikipedia:SUBCAT|subcategories]].
