See also a similar but simpler template {{Wiktionary category 2}}.

This template makes a box linking to a category of Wiktionary.

The template requires two parameters:

  • category – the Wiktionary category name
  • type – descriptive text

Example code: {{Wiktionary category|category=English similes|type=similes in the Modern English language}}

Result:

This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopaedic content.

If using a large, graphical template produces odd layout problems, like the excessive white space shown on the right of this screenshot, then switch to a different sister template.

☒N Do not place this template in a section all by itself.

☒N Do not place this template in a section containing columns.
