==Use example==

*Bobsledding, luge, and skeleton are olympic sports properly subcategorized under 'sledding', so shouldn't appear (strictly speaking categorically so to speak) as sub-categories of 'winter sports', but which a lay reader using categories might expect to find them. {{I2}}So to show their presence and guide proper selections for editors choosing categories amongst the three layers of categories, one can include the sub-sub-categories as a see also annotation on the {{Cat|Winter sports}} page such as:
{{cat see also|SISTER=W:|Luge|Bobsleigh|Skeleton}} This method efficiently provides a look one level lower for decisions on categorization, is neat, and provides the same link as if the sub-sub-cats were direct daughter sub-cats or parents or cross-links to sisters at that level of the categorization scheme.

=Purpose=
{{[[Template:Cat see also|Cat see also]]}} is used for small sets of '''see also''' (list of other categories) for information ''in the end of text on category pages or talk pages, etc.
#The parameters may be preceded by any 'correct' optional [[Wikipedia:Sister projects|sister projects]] ''''SISTER=' parameter''' which is first applied to all the default prefixes by template logic.
##By default, that creates an automatic prefix that is solely the string ''''Category''''
##and when the 'SISTER=' perameter is given, an automatic '''':''''will be added between that and the defined value of 'SISTER='.
#Thus the [[Wd|concatation]] with a 'SISTER=Wikt' results in creating an applied prefix ''''Wikt:Category:'''' which is prefixed to all terms in the list.
#Hence the template has a very powerful 'Interwiki scope' thereby '''allowing one to list Categories on other sister projects.'''
#The template will take up to forty category names.

== Usage ==
:'''<nowiki>{{</nowiki>'''See also:'''|Category Name_1|''optionalCategory Name_2''|''optionalCategory Name_nn''|...|''optionalCategory Name_ 15''}}'''

:* Up to 15 parameters are permitted: only the first is mandatory.
:* The list is dynamically generated so that a "<code>&</code>" is always placed between the final two entries.
:* If more than 15 entries are supplied, a message will be displayed pointing out the run-over problem.

; NB : no newlines are permitted else the article links will be broken.{{i2}}
== See also ==
{{tlw|catlst}} -- a larger adaptation with some optional display differences, and the same interwiki capability. Unlike cat see also, it does not force a newline and indentation, which can be duplicated in it's wider bag of tricks. This version is smaller and should be used
{{tlw|Details}} {{I}}-- e.g. - {{[[{{ns:Template}}:Details|Details]]{{#if:A|<tt>|</tt>A}}{{#if:B|<tt>|</tt>B}}{{#if:C|<tt>|</tt>C}}{{#if:{{{5|}}}|<tt>|</tt>etc.}}}} --> {{Details|A|B|C}}

{{tlw|Main}}, to use when you have more than one main article. {{I}}- e.g. - {{[[{{ns:Template}}:main|main]]{{#if:A|<tt>|</tt>A}}{{#if:B|<tt>|</tt>B}}{{#if:C|<tt>|</tt>C}}{{#if:{{{5|}}}|<tt>|</tt>etc.}}}} --> {{main|A|B|C}}
{{tlw|MainBold}}, to use when you have more than one main article, primarily for use in category text, not Wikipedia {{NAMCON}} compliant inside articles. {{I}}-- e.g. - {{Tlx|mainBold|A|B|C}} --> {{mainBold|A|B|C}}
{{tlw|Further}}){{I}}-- e.g. - {{[[{{ns:Template}}:See|See]]{{#if:A|<tt>|</tt>A}}{{#if:B|<tt>|</tt>B}}{{#if:C|<tt>|</tt>C}}{{#if:{{{5|}}}|<tt>|</tt>etc.}}}} -->
