Template:Info categories

From Familypedia

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)
Description
This template has recently started to be used for running globally used templates. Those functions have very little to do with generating categories from info pages, which is the prime purpose of this template. Please see Template:Info&SMW tests as a better container for them.
The following classification mechanisms are in the process of being made obsolete by SMW. If it is unclear how to generate any of these, please contact someone experienced with SMW. Automatically includes Born in, Married in, and Died in YYYY, as well as Surname categories. It should get places, but we need to do more work on various levels of country subdivision (or something). It uses subpages such as:
{{Info categories/BirthPlace}}
{{Info categories/BirthTime}}
{{Info categories/MarriagePlace}}
{{Info categories/MarriageTime}}
{{Info categories/DeathPlace}}
{{Info categories/DeathTime}}
{{Info categories/ShowCat}}
Usage
Add the following at the end of any person article that has an info page:
{{Info categories}}
Notes
Extensions to this could include more categories, but the additional complexity brings more problems. When info pages are better refined, it will be easy to extend this so that all existing pages that use it get the new categories and can have manually-inserted duplicates removed gradually.
