Module:Suppress categories/doc

This is a simple module to strip categories from wikitext. For example, if passed the code " ", it will return only " ".

The module properly handles categories escaped with the colon trick, categories whose names include invalid characters such as " ", and categories that are surrounded with nowiki tags. However, it does not support complex wikitext such as nested links or magic words like. Even so, it should still remove the vast majority of categories from any given wikitext.
