Usage

This template adds a category or dated category to a page.
It will add the page to an optional additional category.
If the dated category is invalid it will add the page to Category:Resources with invalid date parameter in template

Examples

{{DMCFACT|Wikiversity resources that are too technical|from|{{{date|}}}}} will categorise all files, resources, categories and templates in Category:Wikiversity resources that are too technical from September 2024, if the date is set September 2024 e.g. If such a category does not exist, or the date was set incorrectly, this template will also add the article to Category:Resources with invalid date parameter in template.

{{DMCAT|Wikiversity resources that are too technical|from|{{{date|}}}}} will categorise all resources and article talk pages in Category:Wikiversity resources that are too technical from September 2024, if the date is set September 2024 e.g. If such a category does not exist, or the date was set incorrectly, this template will also add the article to Category:Resources with invalid date parameter in template.

{{DMCA|Resources to be split|from|{{{date|}}}|All resources to be split}} will categorise all resources in Category:Resources to be split from September 2024, if the date is set September 2024 e.g. If such a category does not exist, or the date was set incorrectly, this template will also add the article to Category:Resources with invalid date parameter in template. In either case the article will be added to Category:All resources to be split.

{{DMCA|Dutch mathematicians}} is the straight category Category:Dutch mathematicians.

{{TDMCA|type="Tolkien"|Resources to be split|from|{{{date|}}}|All resources to be split}} will categorise as in the above example but also in Category:Tolkien resources to be split if it exists. If it doesn't the page will be added to the hidden Category:Resources with tags with unsupported types.
