Template:Infobox Character/CreatureTypeCategorization

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

Description

This autocategorization template is used by {{Infobox Character}} to take the CreatureType parameter fed into the infobox and then automatically categorize the infobox's page.  It only works when transcluded into the mainspace.

For example, the character page "Pike Trickfoot" uses {{Infobox Character}}, and {{{CreatureType}}} is defined as Humanoid.  The infobox then calls {{Infobox Character/CreatureTypeCategorization}}, which tells it to add the "Pike Trickfoot" page to "Category:Humanoids".

Dependencies
