Dear All,

I use a certain template that puts pages where it is employed into a maintenence category.

It would be helpful if I could add a certain argument into the category list, namely the program version to which the page refers according to parameter {{{version}}} of the template. So if page foo refers to version 3.8, then in category bar the entry of page foo should be "foo (3.8)".

Is there a way to chieve that?

Off course I could instead call [[category:bar/{{{version}}}]], but then I run into danger of overlooking a category ...

Calling [[category:bar|{{{version}}}]] wasn't a solution because then Pages refering to v3.8 and v3.9 will be indistinguishable under the headline "3" :(

Thank you in advance for your answer. Ciciban (talk) 13:46, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

So one way is to use something like Extension:CategorySortHeaders.

Another way is to put it both in [[category:bar/{{{version}}}]] and [[category:bar]] So you have it both in a general category and a specific version category.

Thank you for the hint – Ciciban (talk) 16:57, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
