ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Commons category
This template is used on ୮,୫୫,୦୦୦+ pages, or roughly 1040% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
As with other interwiki links, if you misspell your link target, the link will still appear blue, not red. Check spelling carefully. |
{{Commons category}} links to a "Category:" name in the Wikimedia Commons repository. If that category name is misspelled or missing, the link will still appear "blue" even though the link will fail. Check the existence of the category on commons as well as the spelling of names carefully.

Usage
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]{{Commons category|catnam}}
– Puts link-box connecting title catnam {{Commons category|catnam|shownam}}
– Puts link-box showing the title shownam {{Commons category|catnam|position=left}}
– Floats link-box to the left side, as option to align box to left-margin
The two parameters catnam and shownam (1 & 2) are optional, and are intended for cases where the Commons category name is different from the Wikipedia page name. The first parameter is the name of the corresponding category on the Wikimedia Commons, without the "Category:
" prefix. If this first parameter is used, then the template will display the Commons category name, which may be confusing to readers. This text can be overridden by the second parameter, where the Wikipedia page name would typically be used.
A bot account, AvicBot ([[::User talk:AvicBot|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/AvicBot|contribs]]), currently runs a task which automatically fills in the first parameter where it is blank, thus providing some protection against category links breaking when pages are moved. It should therefore be safe to omit this when manually editing pages if the page title matches the Commons category title.
For example, on the Polar bear page, {{Commons category|Ursus maritimus|Polar bears}}
produces a link to Commons:Category:Ursus maritimus displayed as "Polar bears".
The parameter |position=
accepts one value, |position=left
, that moves the box to the left side, instead of the default right side. More information may be found at Template:Side box.
Location
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]Do not place this template in a section all by itself without floating left.
Do not place this template in a section containing columns without floating left.
In articles, this template should be placed at the top of the last section on the page. On disambiguation pages, this template is usually placed at the top of the page. See Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects#Where to place links for more information and alternatives.
In categories, this template should be grouped with other templates at the beginning of the category introduction. This avoids unnecessary white space as any text is floated around the template boxes.
