 – Template no longer uses <p> markup at all.

Please add closing </p> tags as this breaks rendering on some Wikipedia forks. Dpleibovitz (talk) 17:56, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

As per the archived discussion "Simplify and refine naming of category classes", use of adjectives like "administration" should be avoided to describe categories because an "administration category" should like something only Wikipeida administrators should worry about. Template:Tracking category had the same problem where its text was saying "administrative tracking category". I fixed that after the discussion and nobody complained and it does seem like it has made things less confusing. Historically, the problematic wording was first introduced back on 12 April 2007 with this edit; prior the wording was calling it a maintenance category. I'm going to go ahead and change it here too by using the word "maintenance" only again. Please read the archive discussion and if you still notice any problem, explain it here.

This edit request to Template:Wikipedia category has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Many maintenance categories groups articles because of their content, such as unreferenced content or non-neutral-point-of-view content. Categories are supposed to group articles because of their topics. Therefore, please change "it groups articles by status rather than content." to "it groups articles by status rather than by subject." or "...than by topic." 208.95.51.115 (talk) 13:24, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

 Done Good catch. It looks like it was only in there for a little over a month. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:47, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Template:Category header has a parameter |template=. Is there any particular reason why {{maintenance category}} doesn't support it? For example, Category:Categories for deletion passes |description=Pages are categorized here using {{Tlx|Cfd}}. to {{maintenance category}}. Such notices could be more automated by supporting |template=. Same can be said about {{Tracking category}}. For example, Category:All articles with links needing disambiguation has in its description The category is added automatically by using template {{Tl|Disambiguation needed}}.. Unifying placement of links to templates in category banner could be useful. —⁠andrybak (talk) 11:41, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

I don't understand exactly what your goal is, but {{Unknown parameters category}} may be of interest as a category header template that does some special handling. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:18, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Jonesey95, the goal is to understand why there isn't a parameter |template= in templates {{maintenance category}} and {{tracking category}}, which would provide a prominent unified message about the categorizing template in the category header. —⁠andrybak (talk) 16:03, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
