Template:Category_link
[[:Category:{1}|Category:{1}]]
{Cl|category name}{Cl|Category:category name}{Cl|category name|link text}{Cl|category name|link text|count=yes}{Cl|category name|link text|count=yes|count_type=type}{Cl|category name|link text|count=yes|count_type=type|backlog=backlog threshold}
{category link} or its alias {cl} produces a link to a category in a similar fashion to {Tl} for a template. For example:
- {Cl|Africa} produces: Category:Africa
To specify the text used for the link, add it as a second parameter:
- {Cl|Africa|this category} produces: this category
To add a count of everything in the category, add the |count=yes parameter:
- {Cl|Africa|count=yes} produces: Category:Africa ( 26 )
If you just want to get a count of pages, files, or subcats, use the |count_type= parameter:
- {Cl|Africa|count=yes|count_type=all} produces: Category:Africa ( 26 ) (default)
- {Cl|Africa|count=yes|count_type=pages} produces: Category:Africa ( 8 )
- {Cl|Africa|count=yes|count_type=subcats} produces: Category:Africa ( 18 )
- {Cl|Africa|count=yes|count_type=files} produces: Category:Africa ( 0 )
If you want to make counts standout for categories that have a backlog, use |backlog=:
- {Cl|Africa|count=yes|backlog=20} produces: Category:Africa ( 26 )
