Template:BookCat/doc
![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:BookCat. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template puts the page on which it's used ({{FULLPAGENAME}}
) into appropriate categories, based on certain page-naming and page-categorization conventions.
Usage
editWhen used without parameters, it
- places subpages of a book in the book's category (
Category:{{ROOTBOOKNAME}}
) and sorts them by chapter name. - places a book's templates in the book's template category (
Category:{{ROOTBOOKNAME}}/Templates
). This only works if a book's templates begin withTemplate:{{ROOTBOOKNAME}}
. - places a book's template category in the book's category and in
Category:Book-specific templates
. - places any other category in its parent, sorted by the category's last name. The parent has the same name except removing everything from the last slash on; and the last name is the part that was removed after that last slash. For example,
Category:My Book/Images
would go inCategory:My Book
with sort keyImages
.
Parameters
editOptional parameter filing=deep
changes the behavior on book pages, so that a book page with more than one slash in its name is placed in a subcategory of the category where its parent page would be placed, sorted by the page's last name. For example, using {{BookCat|filing=deep}}
on page My Book/Maps/Asia
would put that page in Category:My Book/Maps
with sort key Asia
.
Optional parameter template-filing=deep
changes the behavior on template pages to deep filing (so Template:My book/Maps/Asia
would go in Category:My book/Templates/Maps
).
