Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

This is a template documentation subpage for Template:Documentation subpage. It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

{{Documentation subpage}}

or

{{Documentation subpage|[[Page where the documentation transcluded]]}}

Other parameters

• inhibit=yes will prevent this template from generating any categories. (By default, "Namespace documentation pages" (usually Category:Template documentation) is added, or Category:Documentation subpages without corresponding pages if the main page doesn't exist.)

Display

This template should normally be placed at the top of /doc pages. It changes output depending on where it is viewed:

• On a /doc page, it displays a box explaining template documentation and links to the template page.
• On other pages – i.e. pages transcluding the /doc page – the template will not show. The template page itself (which contains {{Documentation}}) will automatically note that the documentation is transcluded from a subpage.

Functions

In addition to its message, the template adds pages to Category:Template documentation, Category:User documentation, or similar (named after the subject space), but only for documentation pages in namespaces with the subpage feature. It defaults the sort key to the page name without namespace: Template:Foo, for example, would be sorted as "Foo", i.e. under "F".

The above text is transcluded from Template:Documentation subpage/doc; you can change it or view its history. (How does this work?)
If you're done making changes, please refresh the text. (Why?)
You can experiment in this template's sandbox (create | mirror ) and testcases (create) pages.
Please add categories and interwikis to Template:Documentation subpage/doc. (View all subpages of this page.)
