Further template category notes
This category contains pages in the template namespace. It should not be used to categorize articles or pages in other namespaces. To add a template to this category:
- If the template has a separate documentation page (usually called "Template:template name/doc"), add
- [[Category:Semantic markup templates]]
- to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add
- <noinclude>[[Category:Semantic markup templates]]</noinclude>
- to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

This category is for article-related templates that improve Wikipedia's use of Web semantics.
