| This page describes how to {{{1}}}. | Other "how to" pages |
Usage
Calling the template currently:
- Auto-categorises pages to be members of Category:How To
- Corrects the sortkey: telling the system that VLC HowTo/Adjust audio delay ought to be filed as "Adjust audio delay" (A) and not "VLC HowTo/Adjust audio delay" (V).
- Displays a message (optional)
- If the first unnamed parameter is specified (e.g. {{howto|do something}}) a message will be shown similar to the above.
- Alternately, not passing anything to the first parameter (e.g. {{howto}}) suppresses the message altogether—however, the template still auto-categorises and auto-sorts.
