Wikipedia:Category header
 | The following is a proposed Wikipedia policy, guideline, or process. The proposal may still be in development, under discussion, or in the process of gathering consensus for adoption. |
This is a proposal to replace the current category headers with one standardised category header, possibly under the name Template:Category header. The proposed category header can be found at User:Mclay1/Category banner. Without any parameters it looks like this:
This template replaces the following templates:
- {{Cat main}}
- {{Double category}}
- {{Set category}}
- {{Wikipedia category}}
- {{Hidden category}}
- {{Tracking category}}
- {{Lists category}}
- {{Stub category}}
- {{Parent-only stub category category}}
- {{Help category}}
- {{Redirect category}}
- {{All included}}
- {{User category}}
- {{Portal category}}

Example: {{Category banner|class=admin|type=tracking|contents=lists|template=Example}} produces:

Please discuss this template on the talk page. When discussing, please do not just vote on the proposal – it is a discussion.
