Guidelines
This template should be added at the very bottom of articles, just before interwiki links. Types should be used in alphabetical order. If a type does not apply, it should not be used. Games should be entered in canon order.
The navboxes that are automatically generated by this template can be customized by creating a category navbox template using {{Categories/Navbox}}.
It is possible to prevent a navbox from being automatically generated by using {{Categories/Navbox Null}}. This is desirable in situations where equivalent navboxes (made with {{Navbox}}) are already being placed on the page before {{Categories}}. This is usually done to give a certain navbox priority over other categories. For example on the Full Moon Cello page, the navbox {{Instruments of the Sirens}} is added before {{Categories}}, which generates navboxes for Instruments and String Instruments. The latter categories are less relevant, so it makes sense to give the Instruments of the Sirens navbox priority and display it separately from other navboxes. Hence, {{Categories/Navbox Null}} is used on Template:Categories/Navbox/Instruments of the Sirens to prevent {{Categories}} from generating its own navbox for Instruments of the Sirens.
For more information on the navboxes automatically added by this template, see Module:Categories/Data.
