{{साचा वर्ग}} should be placed at the top of categories that contain template pages and their related subcategories. This template populates वर्ग:विकिपीडिया साचा वर्ग.
Setting type to one of the following values adds a preset note as to which type of template the category (but not necessarily its subcategories) is meant to contain. The values are:
ambox
campaignbox
conversion
external link
formatting
function
message
meta
navbox
navigation
sidebar
stub
sub
timeline
userbox
If type is set to something other than one of these values, the default "The pages listed in this category are templates" note appears unmodified.
type alone
{{साचा वर्ग |type=sidebar}}
या वर्गात असलेली पाने ही या गोष्टींसाठी आहेत: कडपट्टी साचे.
Use topic to add a default description ending "...relating to topic", where topic is usually a wikilink to the main article associated with the category (e.g. United States for the वर्ग:United States templates).
topic alone
{{साचा वर्ग |topic=the [[United States]]}}
हे साचे the United States याचेशी/यांचेशी संबंधित आहेत.
Use description if a customised description is needed instead of – or, if topic also used, to follow – the default description above.
type, topic, description
{{साचा वर्ग
| type = navbox
| topic = [[China]]
| description = <br />{{small|For templates relating specifically to the [[People's Republic of China|People's Republic of China (PRC)]] or the current [[Republic of China|Republic of China (ROC, "Taiwan")]], see, respectively, {{c|People's Republic of China templates}} and {{c|Republic of China (Taiwan) templates}}.}}
}}
Use onright to place right-aligned boxes beside the template such as {{Portal}} (to provide link/s to related portal/s), {{Commons category}} (to provide a link to the same or a similarly-named Commons category), etc. If more than one box is included, ensure the widest one appears first (see example below) otherwise overlapping may occur.
topic, onright
{{साचा वर्ग
| topic = the [[United States]]
| onright = {{Commons category|United States|the United States}}{{Portal|United States}}
}}
Set container as true, yes, etc. to identify the category as a धारक वर्ग, i.e. a category meant to contain only subcategories. A note requesting that no templates are added to the साचा वर्ग is then included.
container alone
{{साचा वर्ग |container=true}}
नोंद:कृपया या वर्गात साचे जोडू नका; त्याऐवजी त्याचा उपवर्ग वापरा.
