Show the number of articles in a certain category
This test shows how to put a DPL statement into a template (just for fun in this case) and how to return the number of articles instead of their names. We are going to use the 'resultsheader=' parameter which allows you to use a variable called %PAGES%.
We are going to use a template which contains the following code
{{#dpl:
|category = {{{category}}}
|mode = userformat
|resultsheader = There are %PAGES% articles on ''{{{category}}}'' in this wiki.
|noresultsheader = This wiki doesn´t contain any articles on ''{{{category}}}''.
}}
We are going to call the template like this:
{{DPL Count|category=Fictitious Countries}}
- This wiki doesn´t contain any articles on Fictitious Countries.
- This wiki doesn´t contain any articles on Fictitious countries.
