This is a documentation subpage for Template:Sandbox other. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This page is not a sandbox. It should not be used for test editing. To experiment, please use the Wikipedia sandbox, your user sandbox, or the other sandboxes. |
This template is used on approximately 107,000 pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
This template can be used on template documentation pages to ensure that any given template sandbox does not populate its main template's category(ies).
This template has two unnamed parameters, |1=
and |2=
. Near the bottom of a /doc page where the categories are usually placed, install this template as follows:
<includeonly>{{sandbox other|| <!-- Categories go below this line, please; interwikis go to Wikidata, thank you! --> [[Category:(first category)]] [[Category:(second category)]] (more categories if needed) }}</includeonly>
- Usage of an empty first parameter (two pipes together,
||
, at the end of the first line of code above) essentially means|1=(do nothing)
and will not allow the sandbox page to populate the listed categories. - Note that the closing template braces (
}}
) are placed just before the </includeonly> tag. This is the same as|2=(category comment and categories)
. In "long hand" it may appear as follows:
<includeonly>{{sandbox other|1=<!-- keep sandbox out of categories -->|2= <!-- Categories go below this line, please; interwikis go to Wikidata, thank you! --> [[Category:(first category)]] [[Category:(second category)]] (more categories if needed) }}</includeonly>
