-- CATEGORY HANDLER --
-- --
-- This module implements the {{category handler}} template --
-- in Lua, with a few improvements: all namespaces and all --
-- namespace aliases are supported, and namespace names are --
-- detected automatically for the local wiki. This module --
-- requires [[Module:Namespace detect]] to be available on --
-- the local wiki. It can be configured for different wikis --
-- by altering the values in the "cfg" table. --
-- --
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Configuration data --
-- Language-specific parameter names and values can be set --
-- here. --
----------------------------------------------------------------------
local cfg = {}
-- cfg.nocat is the parameter name to suppress categorisation.
-- cfg.nocatTrue is the value to suppress categorisation, and
-- cfg.nocatFalse is the value to both categorise and to skip the
-- blacklist check.
cfg.nocat = 'nocat'
cfg.nocatTrue = 'true'
cfg.nocatFalse = 'false'
-- The parameter name for the legacy "categories" parameter.
cfg.categories = 'categories'
cfg.categoriesYes = 'yes'
-- The parameter name for the legacy "category2" parameter. This
-- skips the blacklist if set to the cfg.category2Yes value, and
-- suppresses categorisation if present but equal to anything other
-- than cfg.category2Yes.
cfg.category2 = 'category2'
cfg.category2Yes = 'yes'
-- cfg.subpage is the parameter name to specify how to behave on
-- subpages. cfg.subpageNo is the value to specify to not
-- categorise on subpages; cfg.only is the value to specify to only
-- categorise on subpages.
cfg.subpage = 'subpage'
cfg.subpageNo = 'no'
cfg.subpageOnly = 'only'
-- The parameter for data to return in all namespaces.

-- The parameter name for data to return if no data is specified for
-- the namespace that is detected. This must be the same as the
-- cfg.other parameter in [[Module:Namespace detect]].

-- page; used for testing and demonstration. This must be the same
-- as the cfg.page parameter in [[Module:Namespace detect]].

-- The categorisation blacklist. Pages that match Lua patterns in this
-- list will not be categorised unless any of the following options are
-- set: "nocat=false", "categories=yes", or "category2=yes".
-- If the namespace name has a space in, it must be written with an
-- underscore, e.g. "Wikipedia_talk". Other parts of the title can have
-- either underscores or spaces.

'^Main Page$', -- don't categorise the main page.
-- Don't categorise the following pages or their subpages.

'^User:UBX/.*$',
'^User_talk:UBX$',
'^User_talk:UBX/.*$',
-- Don't categorise subpages of these pages, but allow
-- categorisation of the base page.
'^Wikipedia:Template messages/.*$',
'/[aA]rchive' -- Don't categorise archives.
}
-- This is a table of namespaces to categorise by default. They
-- should be in the format of parameter names accepted by
-- [[Module:Namespace detect]].

'main',
'file',
