This template helps with page categorizing. It's intented for use especially in other templates. Takes max. 5 parameters and starts to check category existence from the last one, only the last existing category is used as a result.
Examples
{{Category|Europe|Germany|Bavaria|nonexistentcategory}}
--> [[Category:Bavaria]]
{{Category|Germany|Bavaria}}
--> [[Category:Bavaria]]
{{Category|Canada|Quebec|Montérégie}}
--> [[Category:Quebec]]
Note
Tthis template doesn't check if a category is under another category, picture is only informal. Therefore it's good to use for geo/administrative categories. Don't use it to put page in more categories e.g. {{Category|Poland|Slovakia|Border crossings}}.
