Template documentation follows
Note: the template above may sometimes be partially or fully invisible.
Visit "Template:Backlog status/doc" to edit its documentation if it is available. (How does this work?)

Due to a server limit of 500 "expensive parser function" calls (e.g. #ifexist:, PAGESIZE:, and PAGESINCATEGORY:), this template will only work properly if the page using it has not already exceeded the limit. When the limit is exceeded, the page using this template or module is categorised in Category:Pages with too many expensive parser function calls. (further information)

Usage

Displays a list of a bunch of backlogs. Internally, uses {{BacklogCount}} to generate each link.

Bugs and limitations

Most categories are counted. Each counted category counts against Wikipedia's Expensive parser function count limit of 500.
Items which count dated maintenance categories call Template:Dated maintenance category count, which counts the last 60 months of categories, resulting in 61 expensive parser function calls for each dated maintenance category.
The following dated maintenance categories are counted:
