ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು:Cat main/doc

This is a documentation subpage for ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು:Cat main
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು page.

This template uses Lua:

Module:Cat main

Usage

This template is for use on Category pages, to refer to the primary article associated with this category, which most of the time, describes the entire set containing the category.

Normal usage (uses category name for wiki link):

{{Cat main}} → Lua error in ಮಾಡ್ಯೂಲ್:Cat_main at line 26: attempt to call field 'formatPages' (a nil value).

If the name of the main article is different than the name of the category — for example: if the main article for ವರ್ಗ:Dead or Alive is Dead or Alive (series) — then you will need to use one parameter to specify the article:

{{Cat main|Dead or Alive (series)}} → Lua error in ಮಾಡ್ಯೂಲ್:Cat_main at line 26: attempt to call field 'formatPages' (a nil value).

Multiple articles

Simply append more articles as additional arguments (up to five):

{{Cat main|1}} results in Lua error in ಮಾಡ್ಯೂಲ್:Cat_main at line 26: attempt to call field 'formatPages' (a nil value).
{{Cat main|1|2}} results in Lua error in ಮಾಡ್ಯೂಲ್:Cat_main at line 26: attempt to call field 'formatPages' (a nil value).
{{Cat main|1|2|3|4|5}} results in Lua error in ಮಾಡ್ಯೂಲ್:Cat_main at line 26: attempt to call field 'formatPages' (a nil value).

Pages which aren't articles

{{Cat main|WP:WikiProject|article=no}} → Lua error in ಮಾಡ್ಯೂಲ್:Cat_main at line 26: attempt to call field 'formatPages' (a nil value).
