This page describes how to do something. Other "how to" pages

Usage

Calling the template currently:

  1. Auto-categorises pages to be members of Category:How To
  2. 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).
  3. Displays a message (optional)
    • {{howto|play music with VLC}}) will show This page describes how to play music with VLC.
    • {{howto}} will suppress the message altogether—however, the template still auto-categorises and auto-sorts.
