Purpose

[edit]

Usage

Hidden category

[edit]

This template includes one of two hidden subcategories of category Category:Wikipedia articles incorporating text from the Dictionary of National Biography. If a "Piped" template is used, Category:Articles incorporating DNB27 text with Wikisource reference is included. If a "plain" template is used, Category:Articles incorporating DNB27 text without Wikisource reference is included. In either case the category does not appear at the bottom of the article page, but the article is listed on the category page.
