Documentation

This template is used to place summary information on a cast member on all Battlestar Wiki biography articles. It provides lower case parameters only.

By default, this template employs automatic categorization, thus removing the need to manually add categories to most cast articles. Should the need arise to disable it, use the nocat attribute as stated in this documentation. Doing this, however, requires that you manually add the categories to the end of the article text.
