Help:Categories/kjp

Categories, a software feature of MediaWiki, provide automatic indexes that are useful as tables of contents.

You can categorize pages and files by adding one or more Category tags to the content text. These tags create links at the bottom of the page that take you to the list of all pages in that category, which makes it easy to browse related articles.

Any number of     tags may be added to the page and the page will be listed in all of them. tags, along with placed in the sidebar, are usually added at the very bottom of the page for the convenience of other editors.

On a categorized page, categories are displayed in the Categories: box strictly in the order they appear in the wikitext.

If is set to true, under the first list each category is listed again, breadcrumb-style, with all its parent categories, sorted alphabetically. (At least in MediaWiki 1.18.2) if a category is a subcategory of more than one parent, both hierarchies will be listed, but the tagged category will be stripped off all but one of these. This creates the potential for what appear to be duplicate entries if a category with multiple parents and one of its parents are both tagged on a page. For example suppose Maryanne is a subcategory of both Mary and Anne. If a page tags categories Maryanne and Anne then the Category breadcrumbs will show

Anne Anne Mary -> Maryanne

"Anne" appears to be duplicated, but what is meant is

Anne Anne -> Maryanne Mary -> Maryanne

This is a bug, and has been reported in T35614.

By default, a page is sorted within a category under the first letter of its name — without the namespace. Also, MediaWiki groups accented characters separately from their unaccented version, so pages starting by À, Á, Ä, will be listed under separate headings, instead of under heading A. (If you have shell access, these defaults can be changed using .)

A sort key specifies under which letter heading, and where in the category list, the page will appear. You can add a sort key by placing it inside the tag after a pipe character. For example, the tag below will add the page under heading "S".

Whether or not sort keys are case-sensitive depends on your configuration settings. The order of the sections within a category follows the Unicode sort order. The sort key does not change the page title displayed in the category.

Spaces and other characters are perfectly valid.

See for further information on category sorting.

Categories exist even if their page has not been created, but these categories are isolated from others and serve little purpose for organization or navigation.

A category is created by creating a page in the Category: namespace. A category page can be created the same way as other wiki pages (see ); just add " " before the page title.

To avoid extra work, try searching within your wiki before creating a new category. The list of all categories can be found in "" in the "" box of the sidebar.

Managing the category hierarchy
Categories may belong to other categories in a hierarchy. Since category pages are much like any other page, a     tag may be added to the bottom of a category page.

It is a good idea to organize all categories into a hierarchy with a single top level category. The category structure can take the form of a tree with separate branches, but more often will have a graph structure. Generally, there should be a contiguous chain of parent-child links between each category and the top level category.

The categories that a page is in are normally listed at the bottom of the page. In MediaWiki 1.13+, a category can be hidden from this list by adding the magic word " " to the category page.

Users can choose to see hidden categories in a separate "" list, by checking "" in the "" section of Special:Preferences.

Hidden categories are automatically added to Category:. This category is specified in the system message MediaWiki:Hidden-category-category.

To create a link to a category, use a leading colon before the category name (without this colon, the current page would be added to the category):


 * &rarr;    :Help

To change the link text, write the text inside the link tag after a pipe:


 * &rarr;  Help category 

Redirect pages that redirect to categories must also use the colon, otherwise they will be added to the category instead of redirecting.

Like normal wiki pages, category pages can be redirected to other normal or category pages. However, this is not recommended, as pages categorized in redirected categories do not get categorized in the target category (T5311). Some Wikimedia sites use a "category redirect" template to mark redirected categories, allowing manual or automated cleanup of pages categorized there.

Certain syntax issues, such as a broken image link, or too many expensive parser functions, can cause a page to be added to a tracking category. See for details.
