{{DES | des = Prototype wiki page for a subject index.}}
Entries in an index are sorted by the sort key.

Cut and paste, then replace between the asterisks:
<pre>
<nowiki>[[Category:*some category*|*sort key*]] <!-- 0 or more parent categories --></nowiki>
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>DES | des = *Description to be used when the parent category is listed by Template:List.*<nowiki>}}</nowiki>
<nowiki>*Any text that is meant to be viewed on this page.*</nowiki>
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>Links<nowiki>}} <!-- optional list of links --></nowiki>
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>Quotes<nowiki>}} <!-- optional list of quotations --></nowiki>
</pre>
This example can be viewed directly and be listed for its categories by [[Template:List]].
If it is viewed directly, it will present a list of links in the category of the title and a list of quotes in the same category.
