Template:CanadaByProvinceCatNav/doc

A category navigation template, designed to be used on any by-province-or-territory category for any of the 13 current Provinces and territories of Canada.

It creates a navbox with links to identically-named categories for other provinces and territories. For example, on Category:History of Quebec, it creates links to Category:History of Alberta, Category:History of British Columbia etc.

Non-existent categories are not linked. Instead, they are listed in grey, i.e. greyed out.

If there are no navigable links, the navbox will not be displayed, and the page will be categorised in Category:CanadaByProvinceCatNav with all grey links.

Usage

Development
This template was adapted in September 2019 from AllIrelandByCountyCatNav, which began as a proposal at WP:WikiProject Ireland/CatNavProposal. The idea was refined through discussion at WT:WikiProject Ireland/CatNavProposal, and deployed in May 2018 after a 15-day trial on 150 pages.
