[edit] Format

The link is now piped to the name of the category prefixed with "Cat:" to help indicate that this is a link to a category. DES (talk) 13:32, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cat → Category

Does anyone object to just spelling the word out properly? There's no need not to since its in a template, and it could then usefully be used in nomination titles over at WP:CFD where by convention we use the full word. -Splashtalk 19:15, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Feel free to copy this one to Wikipedia if you think it's useful. --Singkong2005 talk 06:28, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hey!?

Hey!? Who stuffed around with the template? it was deliberately left at just Cat: so as not to take up space! Increasing it to its fuull length means its no longer useful for sfd-current. Grutness...wha? 08:21, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] change cat to category

I feel it's unnceissary to only type Cat in the tempalte, and not Category. →AzaToth 16:09, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

See the section right above this one. Perhaps there is space for both an abbreviated and a non-abbreviated template? Kusma (討論) 16:44, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Tag removed. JesseW, the juggling janitor 03:10, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] First character upper-case

Since categories should always be capitalized, this template should make the first character of the category name upper-case, like so:

[[:Category:{{{1}}}|Cat:{{ucfirst:{{{1}}}}}]]

[edit] Hatnote should mention Template:Wikipedia category

{{editprotected}} Because Template:Category redirects here, I believe there should be some mention of the template {{Wikipedia category}}, which some people might be looking for. Perhaps in a hatnote? \sim Lenoxus " * " 22:38, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Added to documentation, which you're welcome to play around with as you see fit. Happy‑melon 14:42, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
