Displays standardized category navigation for occupations and nationalities, required by Wikipedia:Category names#Occupation.
This template should be avoided on categories not diffused by nationality, e.g. Arab, Bengali, Carniolan, Guadeloupean fooers. Note that geographic categories should in general use the People from Foo format, as required by Wikipedia:Category names#Residence.

Categories
Adds a pair of standard parent categories:
- [[Category:Nationality people by occupation|Profession]]
- [[Category:Profession by nationality|Nationality]]
If the "Supercategory" parameter is used, the following categories will be generated instead:
- [[Category:Nationality people by occupation|Profession]]
- [[Category:Supercategory by nationality|Nationality]]
If the "Supercategory2" parameter is also used, the following categories will be generated instead:
- [[Category:Nationality people by occupation|Profession]]
- [[Category:Supercategory by nationality|Nationality]]
- [[Category:Supercategory2 by nationality|Nationality]]
Self-checking
The template tests for the existence of [[Category:Profession by nationality]] or [[Category:Supercategory by nationality]] or [[Category:Supercategory2 by nationality]], and alters its output as follows:
- If the "Supercategory" parameter is supplied, but [[Category:Supercategory by nationality]] does not exist, then [[Category:Supercategory]] will be used instead)
- If the "Supercategory" and "Supercategory2" parameters are both supplied, but neither [[Category:Supercategory by nationality]] nor [[Category:Supercategory2 by nationality]] exists, then [[Category:Supercategory]] will be used instead)
- When neither the "Supercategory" or "Supercategory2" parameters supplied, the template tests for the existence of [[Category:Profession by nationality]]. If that does not exist, then [[Category:Profession]] will be used instead)
Examples
Example from Category:American writers:
{{Fooian fooers |Profession=Writers |Nationality=American |Country=United States}}
Supercategory
The Supercategory parameter allows another category to be added between the "nationality people by occupation" and this occupation category. This for occupations which are a subset of another ocupation.
Example from Category:American diarists:
{{Fooian fooers |Profession=Diarists |Supercategory=Writers |Nationality=American |Country=United States}}
Example from Category:Irish autobiographers:
{{Fooian fooers |Profession=Autobiographers |Nationality=Irish | Country=Ireland |Supercategory=Biographers}}
Example from Category:German civil engineers:
{{Fooian fooers |Profession=civil engineers |Nationality=German |Country=Germany |Supercategory=engineers}}
Supercategory2
The Supercategory2 parameter is for use when an occupation is an intersection of two other occupations.
Example from Category:British film score composers:
{{fooian fooers |Profession=Film score composers |Nationality=British |Supercategory=film people |Supercategory2=composers |Country=United Kingdom}}
Example from Category:Irish magazine editors:
{{Fooian fooers |Profession=magazine editors |Nationality=Irish |Country=Ireland |Supercategory=editors |Supercategory2=magazine people}}
