The tag template is a link macro template that links to a page and applies a category. It's best to use it on the page's infobox rather than in the text proper.

Note that the category will be suppressed on userpages for the sake of drafting articles without affecting readers, you can use Special:ExpandTemplates if you wish to test that proper categories are included before moving the draft to the mainspace.

Template[edit]

Note: Replace {{1}} with an actual parameter. 

{{tag |{{1}} |cat= |text= }}

Parameters[edit]

Highlighted lines indicate mandatory parameters.

Positional parameters are indicated with {{N}} in their name. For example, {{1}} means "the first template parameter".

{{Tag}} Parameters
Parameter Description Examples
{1} Use the first parameter to create a link and add the page to a category with the same name.

|Diagram

cat Use this to add this page to a category named differently than the first parameter; if cat is used, the first parameter serves only as a page link.

Note: This is useful in cases such as when the first parameter links to a disambiguation page; for example, {{tag|Diagram}} would add the page to Category:Diagram and link to Diagram, while {{tag|Diagram (group)|cat=Diagram}} adds the page to Category:Diagram and links to Diagram (group).

|cat=Diagram

link Use this to change which page the tag links to.

Note: To follow from the above example, {{tag|Diagram|link=Diagram (group)}} adds the page to Category:Diagram, links to Diagram (group) and displays the tag as Diagram.

|link=Diagram (group)

text Use this to change how the tag is displayed on the page.

Note: To follow from the above example, {{tag|Diagram (group)|cat=Diagram|text=Patriots}} adds the page to Category:Diagram, links to Diagram (group) and displays the tag as Patriots.

|text=Patriots
