Linking to a category without including the category
Rather than using the noinclude tages, if you just stick a : in front of Category, it will link to the Category without classifying the page. For example, Category:Nintendo (typed Category:Nintendo ) puts a link to the Nintendo category without classifying this page as part of the category.  Pro cyon  15:26, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
 * User:Procyon I know. (you might have noticed I'm somewhat familiar with wiki) I'm not sure which one of my edits you're referring to right now. Lite Grooves (talk) 16:34, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
 * User:Procyon User:Prod, I guess it's about Special:diff/847589. (Template:Self/Documentation) I wanted to categorize the main template, and on Wikipedia this is usually done this way as it allow the actual template to be categorized without categorizing the documentation while also making it possible to protect the template (if needed) while still allowing changes to be made to the category by anyone.

 * Ah, got it. Yeah, that was the edit I was referring to, I was wondering why you took that approach, and if it was simply to avoid having the page categorized as such.   Pro  cyon  18:34, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Our categorization system is much simpler, so we don't need to change categories much. Generally, I'm not a big fan of /Documentation pages, since the technical reason for having them is no longer relevant. The point on protection is good though, allowing users to update documentation. -- Prod (talk) 16:18, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
