Template:Maintenance category
Appearance
Page Module:Message box/cmbox.css has no content.
This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. |
This template is used on ≈ 29,615 pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this template should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added to this page in one single edit. Please consider discussing any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template should not be substituted. |
Usage
[source ke badlo]This template should be placed at the top of categories used in the maintenance of Wikipedia rather than as part of the encyclopedia – for example, at the top of Category:Wikipedia administration.

|empty=false/off
| Include a {{Possibly empty category}} -style message.To add a short explanation of the empty category after the message, use |empty_text=Short explanation.
