I would like to add military vehicles
to the #switch, which would link
Category:Set indices on military vehicles.

I tried and apparently failed to create
Category:Set indices on newspapers. There are several 'disambiguation' pages that are more appropriately SIAs: for instance
Star (newspaper),
Evening Star (newspaper),
List of newspapers named Bee, and some others at
Category:Lists of newspapers. Ideally, the template {{SIA|newspaper}}
would categorize correctly. How do I avoid articles going into
Category:Wikipedia disambig or set index box parameter needs fixing (e.g.
Evening Star (newspaper), currently)? Thanks,

Please add "Ukraine" and "populated places in Ukraine" into allowed parameter list; see Category:Set indices on Ukraine, populated manually. Please ping me when done, I will edit the articles accordingly. Staszek Lem ( talk) 19:53, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

Add chemistry category. I made the necessary code change in the sandbox just now ( diff). Tested and it seemed to work. Colin M ( talk) 17:45, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
I suggest adding an automatic short description to this template as was done with {{ Disambiguation}}. My proposed description is "Index of articles associated with the same name" or "Index of articles associated with the name {{PAGENAME}}" similar to "index of enzymes associated with the same name" used by {{ Enzyme index}}. Like when a short description was added to disambiguation pages following this discussion all templates in Category:Set index article templates should get an automatic short description. This description can of course be overridden by adding another instance of {{ Short description}} if a human have a better description.
I have notified WT:WPLIST, WT:SIA, Template talk:Disambiguation and WT:WPSHORTDESC of this proposal. ‑‑ Trialpears ( talk) 19:32, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
At Ahitub, I tried {{SIA|people}}, and nothing happened. If I drop the argument, I do get the overall category. Is this a bug or an undocumented feature? Paradoctor ( talk) 00:06, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
Categories were renamed from "set indices" or "set index pages" to "set index articles", see Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_September_14#Category:Set_indices. A few which used this template but were not listed there were moved summarily under WP:G6. The remainder are being speedily moved.
@ UnitedStatesian: which pages or category names are still giving a problem? I have belatedly fixed those that were categorised as animalia. – Fayenatic London 18:48, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

There's a Category:Set index articles on titles of nobility that was populated by Charles Matthews, but all the instances are manually categorised, and the category is not supported by this template. Charles, I think adding support in the template for auto-categorisation of such pages would be in line with your original intention? -- Paul_012 ( talk) 13:29, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
(Also, why is there no mention in the template documentation of what accepted parameters there are?) -- Paul_012 ( talk) 13:30, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Please add Belarus to the list of allowable parameters. Belarus suffers from the same nameplace homonymy as Russa, see eg Barawlyany.- Altenmann >talk 19:10, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
