The above example is in the two categories explicitly listed, and [[Category:Description]] from the transcluded [[Template:DES]].  The presence of the [[Template:URL]] makes this list with an external link, but a link to the wiki page ([more...]) is appended after the description.  If the [[Template:URL]] is not there, the link is to the wiki page only.  The <nowiki><noinclude></nowiki> is not necessary unless this page is going to be transcluded elsewhere (since [[Template:List Category]] does not transclude.)
