Please note that a normal compact toc will not work when put on category pages This page contains a separate section instructing you how to put a compact toc on category pages. This template adds a table of contents (toc) to a category page It should only be added to category pages and should not be used for categories containing less than 200 pages. This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage.
Rather than have dozens of stylistic varieties, it is preferable to have a single template which can be adjusted to fit the editor's wishes.
