It is used to build and maintain a list or lists of pages—primarily for the sake of the lists themselves and their use in article and category maintenance. It is not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme.
Per consensus at Template talk:Infobox mountain, Wikidata values are to be enabled only after checking each article. This tracking category is used to keep track of articles that contains an unpopulated local parameter, which could otherwise be populated with a value from Wikidata.
Before Wikidata could be enabled for {{Infobox mountain}} (by changing |fetchwikidata={{{fetchwikidata|NONE}}} to |fetchwikidata={{{fetchwikidata|ALL}}}, and removing |replacetext={{#ifeq:{{{fetchwikidata|}}}|ALL||[[Category:Wikidata value to be checked for Infobox mountain]]}} for all parameters), each of the articles in this category must first be cleared manually.
To process articles in this category:
- Open an article
- Add
|fetchwikidata=ALL to the infobox, and preview the result
- Check if the Wikidata values are accurate
- Values from Wikidata could be identified when there is no local value set, but a value is showing in the infobox
- Wikidata values should also have a pen icon at the suffix of the shown value
- Consider saving the reference you used, to Wikidata
- Save the article (with
|fetchwikidata=ALL)
- This will show the Wikidata values, and remove the article from this tracking category.
Once all entries are cleared, and Wikidata is enabled for {{Infobox mountain}}, the |fetchwikidata=ALL in each article becomes obsolete, and can be eventually removed.
More information:
- This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set.
- These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience.
- These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or subcategories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).
- Typically, tracking categories are automatically populated by templates invoked in pages or by the MediaWiki software (see Special:TrackingCategories for an overview of the latter).
