This is a simple helper template, to be used in other templates. It displays a link to a category if that category exists; otherwise it just displays plaintext in grey, to reduce the visual prominence of the unlinked text.

Optional display text may be added as a second parameter.

Purpose

This template is a variant of {{LinkCatIfExists}}, which does no greying.

The greying was designed to improve the clarity of category header templates such as {{EstcatContinentCentury}} on pages such as Category:11th-century establishments in Asia.

Usage
