We use a resultsheader and footer

Note that theses statements do not automatically add newlines. Watch the problem with the DPL query below:

 resultsheader = ===How many articles starting with 'Af' are there in this wiki?===
 resultsfooter= ===There are %PAGES% articles starting with 'Af' in this wiki.===

Some text before the query:

How many articles starting with 'Af' are there in this wiki?===

• Template:African Country
• Category:African Union member states

===There are 2 articles starting with 'Af' in this wiki.

and some text after the query.

---

if we add \n to the resultsheader and footer everything appears as wanted:

 resultsheader = \n===How many articles starting with 'Af' are there in this wiki?===\n
 resultsfooter= \n===There are %PAGES% articles starting with 'Af' in this wiki.===\n

Some text before the query:

How many articles starting with 'Af' are there in this wiki?

• Template:African Country
• Category:African Union member states

There are 2 articles starting with 'Af' in this wiki.

and some text after the query.

On the other hand you can write something like

* [[:Category:DPL|DPL]] {{#dpl:category=DPL|resultsheader=(%PAGES%)|format=,}} ...
** [[:Category:DPL bugs|DPL bugs]] {{#dpl:category=DPL bugs|resultsheader=(%PAGES%)|format=,}} ...
** [[:Category:DPL Manual|DPL Manual]] {{#dpl:category=DPL Manual|resultsheader=(%PAGES%)|format=,}} ...

• DPL (5) ...
  • DPL bugs (1) ...
  • DPL Manual (18) ...

This could be further improved by a template which produces a link to a category together with a member count. The source would the look like this:

* {{Category with count|DPL}} ...
** {{Category with count|DPL bugs}} ...
** {{Category with count|DPL Manual}} ...

and would produce the same result:

• DPL (5) ...
  • DPL bugs (1) ...
  • DPL Manual (18) ...
