No parameters needed.

This adds parent categories including "NN-century Fooian television series", but only if that category exists. Where a country existed for less than a century, this parent is not required to exist; see e.g. Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2023 November 29#Category:20th-century Yugoslav television series.

Errors

[edit]

If the template is used on invalid page, an error message is generated and the page is categorised in:

Purge this page to update the totals

Errors include:

  • The page is not in the category namespace
  • The page's title does not take the form "YYY0s nationality television series"
  • The value of "nationality" does not correspond to a country name. The conversion is made using {{GetCountryNameFromAdjective}}, so the problem may be a glitch in that template's lookup table
