Template Documentation
May be used to inform the users that a category is automatically updated by a template, MediaWiki system, a bot or some other means. Prevents the category from appearing in the Special:UnusedCategories.

Usage

Basic usage:

{{Tracking category | source= }}

source parameter is used to specify the means by which the category is updated. Consider linking to the template(s) or writing e.g. "MediaWiki software" if done by the system. If left empty, prints "an unspecified method".

If you want the smaller version of this template, set parameter "mini" to "yes".

{{Tracking category|source= |mini=yes}}

If you want to showcase the template without removing the page from Special:UnusedCategories, set parameter "includecat" to "no".

{{Tracking category|source= |includecat=no}}
