Template:Automatic category TOC
 | This template is used on approximately 864,000 pages, or roughly 16948% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |

Adds a Table of Contents (TOC) to a category page if the category's size warrants it.
The size thresholds are:
- <= 100 pages → no TOC
- 101–1200 pages → {{Category TOC}}
- > 1200 pages → {{Large category TOC}}
Usage
<syntaxhighlight inline lang="wikitext"></syntaxhighlight>
On category pages, {{Automatic category TOC}} can be placed wherever you want the TOC to be displayed.
On a category header template, it is best placed outside any <includeonly>...</includeonly> tags, so that the template is categorised as using this template.
Parameters
No parameters are needed.
However, the parameters available to {{Category TOC}} may be supplied, and if {{Automatic category TOC}} calls {{Category TOC}}, those parameters will be passed on to {{Category TOC}}.
So, for example, <syntaxhighlight inline lang="wikitext"></syntaxhighlight> will:
- Have no effect if no TOC is generated
- Align to the center if {{Category TOC}} is used
- Have no effect if {{Large category TOC}} is used, because {{Large category TOC}} accepts no parameters
Tracking
| Effect | Pages | % |
|---|---|---|
| No TOC | 55 | 100.00% |
| Standard {{Category TOC}} | 0 | 0.00% |
| {{Large category TOC}} | 0 | 0.00% |
| Total | 55 | |
Each page using this template is categorised in one of three tracking categories:
- Category:Automatic category TOC generates no TOC (55)
- Category:Automatic category TOC generates standard Category TOC (0)
- Category:Automatic category TOC generates Large category TOC (0)
Templates which transclude {{Automatic category TOC}} are categorised in
... but only if the transclusion is outside any <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags.
Bugs
This template uses the magic word {{PAGESINCATEGORY}} to count the number of pages in the category. Due to caching, the results are occasionally inaccurate.
