Usage 編集

The simplest usage is just {{Monthly clean-up category}} In this case a default message page for that group of categories will need to exist. See Template:Monthly clean-up category/Messages for a list of existing message pages and to understand the naming convention.

Also the category will need to follow the naming convention "Blah blah from 6月 2024". (See #Limitations for more information.)

A missing message page will give a red-link to the page where the message should be written. That page will look something like Template:Monthly clean-up category/Messages/CategoryName. {{Null}} can be used for an intentionally blank item.

If a red lined counter category is shown, simply populate it with {{Counter category}}.

Parameter toc 編集

  • toc = focus - gives a focus letter
  • toc = toc - give a category style table of contents
  • toc = none -

Parameter hidden 編集

  • hidden = n - The category will not be hidden.

Nearly empty copy 編集

 | type    = 
 | toc     = toc
 | cat     = 
 | hidden  = y
 | message = 
}}

Limitations 編集

If category names are over 100 chars or contain special characters, the template may need to have "year" "month name" and "monthno" supplied.

Similarly if the category name does not follow the convention "Blah blah from 6月 2024".

Example 編集

...

| monthno = 06
| month name = 6月
| year    = 2024
