Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]Usage

- {{c|Philosophy}} produces: Philosophy
- {{c|Category:philosophy}} produces: Philosophy
To specify the text used for the link – e.g. "Philosophy category" in place of "Philosophy" – add it as the next parameter:
- {{c|Philosophy|Philosophy category}} produces: Philosophy category
- {{c|Category:philosophy|Philosophy category}} produces: Philosophy category
