{{Related category}}
{{Cat see also}}

Usage

Usual syntax: {{Category see also|List of category names (one or more)}}

Parameters:

Most are pipe character separated category page names; up to 40 pages
LABEL=Some other phrase... → replaces defaults: "See also Category:" or "See also categories:" (prefix messages).
1. That phrase is normally italicized. When defining LABEL any wikimarkup or HTML text will be accepted.
2. You may assume a space before the first category link.
3. The template is written in an HTML <span>...</span> block, so can be used in-line as part of a sentence. Conversely, an editing must ensure a blank line or HTML "<br/>" follows it, or the text may be run the next line into it.
SISTER=Any valid interwiki or interproject prefix from de:, fr:, es: access to other Wikiversity's to cross sister wiki's using sister projects abbreviations such as B:, Q:, S:, v: etc. and where applicable, both interlingual and cross project links can be made like
1. SISTER=de:V: for linking categories on the German language Wikiversity, or
2. SISTER=fr:B: for linking categories on the French language Wikibooks.

Simple examples

{{Category see also|A}} →
{{Category see also|A|B}} →
{{Category see also|A|B|C}} →

example w/default message: {{Category see also|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee|fff}}

would give (display as): See also Categories: aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd, and eee

example w/LABEL parameter option: {{Category see also|LABEL=See this list to evaluate whether one would be a better choice of |aaa | bbb | ccc | ddd | eee | fff }}

would give (display as): See this list to evaluate whether one would be a better choice of categories: aaa, bbb, ccc, ddd, eee, and fff

Pragmatic Example

Bobsledding and luge are Olympic sports properly subcategorized under 'sledding', so shouldn't appear (strictly speaking categorically so to speak) as sub-categories of 'winter sports', but which a lay reader using categories might expect to find them. So to show their presence and guide proper selections for editors choosing categories amongst the three layers of categories, one can include the sub-sub-categories as a see also annotation on the Category:Winter sports page.

given by...: {{Category see also|Luge|Bobsleigh}}
