Template:Possibly empty category
Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time. |
This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
The {{Possibly empty category}}
template may be placed at the top of any category page for which it is normal that it sometimes is empty. This is typical for some maintenance, tracking and clean-up categories. It shows up only when the category is detected as empty.
Experience has shown that people sometimes delete those categories, thinking that they are no longer in use. However, if a legitimate CSD criterion applies, such as "Categories populated by deleted or retargeted templates", then deletion may take place. Admins should check if a legitimate criterion applies before deleting.
