Usage
This should be placed on the category page that you wish to be hidden. It includes the __HIDDENCAT__ magic word, so that does not need to be added to pages that already have the {{hidden category}} template.
Criteria are given at Wikipedia:Categorization § Hiding categories and Category:Hidden categories.
