සැකිල්ල:Category chart/doc

This template makes it easier to show charts that use data provided by the CategoryCounter bot. The above example is the equivalent of {{articles lacking sources chart}}, which shows the size of Category:All articles lacking sources over time.

Instructions

1. Create the template for the chart, such as {{articles lacking sources chart}}. You only need to call {{category chart}} at minimum with the following parameters:
   • name – a unique identifier for the chart, such as "articles-without-sources"
   • template – the name of the template that you created, with or without the Template: prefix. Prefix with a colon (:) for other namespaces. For instance "Articles lacking sources chart" refers to Template:Articles lacking sources chart and ":Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Backlog chart" refers to Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Backlog chart.
   • title – (optional) title for the x-axis, such as "# articles lacking sources"
   • See the template data below for other options.
2. Create the /data subpage of the template, for instance Template:Articles lacking sources chart/data and add only the content []
3. Have an admin change the content type of the /data page to JSON, for instance at Special:ChangeContentModel/Template:Articles lacking sources chart/data.
4. Have an admin configure the bot at User:MusikBot/CategoryCounter/config.
5. Y කළා The bot should start updating the data within the specified granularity (so within a week if you chose "weekly"), which in turn will be visualized in the chart. You can also manually add historical data to the dataset, if you wish.
