A category header template to create by-century categories for people by occupation from Northern Ireland, e.g. Category:20th-century writers from Northern Ireland.
This template is the only thing required to create such categories.
The template parses the category title to extract both the century and the occupation. So in simple cases, no parameters are required.
Many occupations are subsets of another occupation, e.g. poets are a subset of writers, so use the parameter |Supercategory=
In some rarer cases, an occupation is a subset of two other occupations, e.g. biochemists is a subset of both biologists and chemists
Professionkeepcaps= yes
is added because "DJs" needs to retain it capitalisation in all contexts)The template understands gendered categories: "men fooers", "male fooers", "women Fooers", "female fooers".
When applied to a gendered category, it makes the appropriate adjustments to the parent categories, and adds a link to the sibling category for the other gender (if it exists). This is actually one of its most helpful uses, because gendered by-century categories for Northern Ireland occupations have five parent categories. Manually-built categories rarely get them all right.
However, it doesn't work for "actresses" categories. Don't use it on actress categories.
This template should not be substituted. Doing so makes a hideous mess,
