Series:Hidden categories

This is an administration category. It is used for administration of the Monoskop project and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than content. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a container category. Due to its scope, it should contain only subcategories. This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference is set. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Pages are added to tracking categories through templates. The subcategories of this category are hidden categories. To add a category to this category, tag it with {{Hidden category}} or {{Monoskop category|hidden=yes}}.

This category contains hidden categories. Unlike normal categories, these are not displayed at the bottom of pages that are included in them, and are therefore hidden from readers.

To hide a category, add the template {{Hidden category}} or {{Monoskop category|hidden=yes}} to the category's description page.

Categories should be hidden if they are concerned with the maintenance or administration of the Monoskop project itself, rather than being part of the content of the encyclopedia.

Previewing a page whilst editing it will list the hidden categories used at the bottom of the page. If you have created a user account, you can make hidden categories show up next to normal categories at the bottom of all pages by setting a user preference.
