Editing Template:Category other/doc (section)

=== Usage ===

This template usually takes two parameters, like this:

<pre>
{{category other | Category page text | Other pages text }}
</pre>

If the template is on a "Category:" page, it will return this:

:{{category other | demospace=category | Category page text | Other pages text }}

If the template is on any other page, it will return this:

:{{category other | Category page text | Other pages text }}

A typical usage case could be to make it so that a template only adds a category when on category pages. Thus not adding other pages that just show the template. Like this:

<pre>
{{category other | [[Category:Some category maintenance category]] }}
</pre>

Or to warn that a template should not be used on other pages:

<pre>
{{category other | | This template should only be used on category pages. }}
</pre>

Note that in the first case above the "other" parameter was not used, and in the second example the "category" parameter was left empty.
