{{Lua|Module:Category see also}}
{{Documentation subpage}}
{{High-use|32898}}
<!-- Please place categories where indicated at the bottom of this page and interwikis at Wikidata (see [[Wikipedia:Wikidata]]) -->

==Usage==
===Usual syntax===
{{block indent |'''<code><nowiki>{{Category see also|List of one or more category names}}</nowiki></code>'''}}

===Parameters===
* Most are pipe character-separated category page names; up to 40 pages can be included.
* LABEL=''Some other phrase''...  → replaces the default message prefix: "{{italics correction|''See also''}}".{{block indent |em=2 |The phrase is normally italicized. When defining LABEL any wikimarkup or HTML text will be accepted. The template will add a colon at the end of the phrase.}}
* {{para|project}}: Any valid interwiki or interproject prefix from de:, fr:, es: access to other language Wikipedias to cross-sister wikis using sister projects abbreviations such as B:, Q:, S:, V: etc. Where applicable, both interlingual and cross-project links can be rendered as follows:
** {{para|project|''es''}} for linking categories on es.wikipedia.org, the Spanish-language Wikipedia, or 
** {{para|project|''de:V''}} for linking categories on de.wikiversity.org, the German-language [[Wikiversity]], or 
** {{para|project|''fr:B''}} for linking categories on fr.wikibooks.org, the French-language [[Wikibooks]].
* The template creates a block-level element in the HTML, effectively forming its own paragraph; it may not be used inline in text.

===Simple examples===
# <code><nowiki>{{Category see also|A}}</nowiki></code> → {{Category see also|A}}
# <code><nowiki>{{Category see also|A|B}}</nowiki></code> → {{Category see also|A|B}}
# <code><nowiki>{{Category see also|A|B|C}}</nowiki></code> → {{Category see also|A|B|C}}

===Example with default message===
{{block indent |<code><nowiki>{{Category see also|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee}}</nowiki></code> → {{Category see also|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee}}}}

===Example with LABEL parameter option===
{{block indent |<code><nowiki>{{Category see also|LABEL=See this list to evaluate whether one of them would be a better choice|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee}}</nowiki></code> → {{Category see also|LABEL=See this list to evaluate whether one of them would be a better choice|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee}}}}

===Practical example===
Bobsledding and luge are Olympic sports properly subcategorized under "sledding", so should not appear (strictly speaking categorically) as sub-categories of "winter sports". However, a lay reader using categories might expect to find them there. So to show their presence and guide proper selections for editors choosing categories, one can include the sub-sub-categories as a see also annotation on the [[:Category:Winter sports]] page.
{{block indent |<code><nowiki>{{Category see also|Luge|Bobsleigh}}</nowiki></code> → {{Category see also|Luge|Bobsleigh}}}}
