Line 27:
When a programming example is created, it often looks something like this:
<pre><
==[[Pseudocode]]==
(some code)
</nowiki></pre>
In such cases, there is no link to a category, and the contributing author usually does not create content at the [[Pseudocode]] link. A bot is needed which sees such examples and performs a few simple operations.
First, the code example needs to be categorized:
<pre><nowiki>
==[[Pseudocode]]==
[[Category:Pseudocode]]
(some code)
</nowiki></pre>
Now we've got a link to a nonexistent page, and, at the bottom of the task page, a link to a nonexistent category. The language page needs to be created and filled with a simple redirect to the category page:
<pre><nowiki>
#REDIRECT [[:Category:Pseudocode]]
</nowiki></pre>
Note that the colon preceding the word "Category" is important; it prevents the redirect page from being included in the language category.
Finally, we need to open the Category page, and fill in the <tt><nowiki>{{Programming Language}}</nowiki></tt> template:
<pre><nowiki>{{Programming Language}}</nowiki></pre>
MediaWiki handles the rest.
==[[Pseudocode]]==
