Category works by person is used in category pages using the format of "work type by creator" to automatically handle the layout, links, and categorization (with name sorting) of the page.
Example of categories this should be used on:
- Category:Films directed by J. J. Abrams
- Category:Television series created by J. J. Abrams
- Category:Video games designed by Steve Cartwright
Usage
Paramaters
The following parameters are optional:
|1=or|nationality=. Use to categorize in a nationality sub-category instead of the general profession category. If no nationality category exists, will fallback to the general category.{{Category works by person|American}}or{{Category works by person}}
|sort=. Use to overwrite the automatic sorting which uses the person's last, first name.
What it does
The template will perform the following:
- Add {{Portal}} with the relevant portals.
- Add {{Category more}} with a link to the individual's article.
- Add {{Automatic category TOC}} to handle the category table of contents.
- Place the category as a sub-category of the relevant category.
