Template:Main other

Template documentation follows
Note: the template above may sometimes be partially or fully invisible.
Visit Template:Main_other/doc to edit this documentation. (How does this work?)

Usage

This template usually takes two parameters, like this:

{{main other|result if in mainspace|result if elsewhere}}

If the template is on a main space (article) page, it will return this:

result if in mainspace

If the template is on any other page, it will return this:

result if elsewhere

A typical usage case could be to make it so that a template only adds a category when on an article. Thus not adding other pages that just show the template. Like this:

{{main other|<nowiki>[[Category:Some article maintenance category]]}}</nowiki>

Note that guidelines do not support categorization in templates.

Or to warn that a template should not be used on other pages:

{{main other| |This template should only be used in articles.}}

Note that in the first case above the "other" parameter was not used, and in the second example the "main" parameter was left empty.
