Where, why and how should this be used? Mglovesfun (talk) 18:16, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
 * As stated above, it's "designed for use by an editor who does not recall which of the two categories exists". So if you're creating/editing an entry and wish to add the page to category:Idioms (or is it English idioms?) and Phrasebook (or is it English phrasebook?) and Phrases (or is it English phrases?) and Rhetorical questions (or is it English rhetorical questions?), this template will help. &#x200b;— msh210 ℠ 17:41, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Template:categ
This seems like it was intended as some kind of stopgap measure, but I don't know what it would be useful for today. It has no transclusions. 19:12, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I'd comment if I had the faintest idea what it does. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:17, 23 April 2013 (UTC)
 * The documentation explains it, or tries to. It's meant for use by someone who doesn't remember whether the appropriate category to use in a page is, e.g., category:French idioms or category:fr:Idioms. Using  tries both and adds in the correct one. &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 18:53, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
 * It was intended as permanent, not stopgap, and its use today is the same as ever (for which see my comment above). And it has no transclusions because it must be substed. &#x200b;—msh210℠ (talk) 18:53, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

RFD discussion: August 2018–April 2019
This template was sent to RFDO before, where it was kept solely due to msh210's claim that it was useful (presumably for him alone). The template doesn't even work any more, so I can't imagine anyone has tried to use it for a long time. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 21:49, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
