Template:PopulateCategory

This Template:PopulateCategory is either empty, or sparsely populated, and needs to be 'populated' with articles, stubs (and / or other categories) relevant to the subject matter of this specific category. Include an article page in this category via one (or more) of three methods: a. add PopulateCategory in the appropriate field of its infobox template b. 'tag' a word within the prose of the article, as in {{tag|PopulateCategory}} c. add [[Template:PopulateCategory]] at the bottom of its edit box.

Usage

This category template can be used on any 'unpopulated' category pages, ie, empty categories (or sparsely populated categories). Its' purpose is to prompt editors to add any new or existing articles, including stub articles; or to create completely new articles here on WikiIndex, to the highlighted category.

The text highlighted in grey-white (after a., b., and c. examples) in the template will automatically change to the relevant article or category name. Usage of this template will automatically include the said category into category: Categories needing populating.
