Template talk:Economics
From RationalWiki
I'm trying to make it so that if the template is placed on the page of someone in the economists category, it doesn't automatically include the economics category, but I don't know how to check if a given page is in a category. I considered combing #ifeq and #pos to check if the wikitext included "category:economists" but I don't know a magic word for a page's wikitext either. Any ideas?

- It's not possible. I'm not personally a fan of autoincluding categories, that's one of the reasons.

- I think I might just get rid of the category-inclusion then. Everything with the template is probably already in the cat anyway, so I guess it's unnecessary. ThunderkatzHo! 21:48, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
- Wait, tell me it's possible to not automatically include a category... Because just taking it out messes stuff up. Not sure I want to be the one to do this, but do we need to edit navsidebar so that a blank category results in no category? ThunderkatzHo! 21:57, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
