Limiting Category Transclusion
Please point me in a better direction if there is one.

I'm trying to find a way to limit category transclusion such that a page created by a template is categorized, but if that page is then transcluded to another page via another template, the category is NOT. So far, by various placement of the and 's, I've gotten the categorization to jump around including categorization of the template itself instead of the page.

What I CAN do is if I edit the page generated by the template and add to it the to the end of it, THEN that page will be categorized, but it won't be when it is transcluded.

My question: is there any way to enable a template to push to a page without acting on it, such that the rest of the template works and the resulting page is categorized, but when it is transcluded, the  is recognized? I feel like I'm missing something. --Glitch25 22:48, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Transclusion restriction
Is there a way i can create a page and then when i transclude it onto another page....i only want the top 3 results. Similar to doing a transclusion of the Recent Changes special page. --Goldbishop 15:48, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Afterthought
I think I should have created this page in the  namespace. (Anyway, it's in the default searchpath here.) Well, an admin might fix it.--Imz 19:16, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
