Template:Catlink/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Catlink (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

This metatemplate is used in photographer templates and can also be used for other non-performers (like directors) who have own categories with a suffix (mostly "models" or "actresses").

If there is a category for the photographer, a link to the category is displayed, otherwise a simple link to the article is displayed.

Examples

• {{catlink|Suze Randall|models}} and {{catlink|Suze Randall}} both give "Suze Randall"
  (linking to Category:Suze Randall models, because the category exists).
  The second parameter is set to "models" by default and can be omitted.
• {{catlink|Russ Meyer|actresses}} gives "Russ Meyer"
  (linking to Category:Russ Meyer actresses, because the category exists).
• {{catlink|Arkadia}} gives "Arkadia"
  (linking simply to the page "Arkadia", because Category:Arkadia models does not exist).
