Future categorization template for images from the Web Gallery of Art. The idea is that this template can be used to create temporary categories intersecting multiple attributes. Than cat-a-lot can be used to move images from those temporary categories to proper categories. For example images with attributes:

• form: painting,
• type: landscape, and
• time period: 1701-1750 or time period: 1751-1800

can be placed in Category:WGA: 18th-century landscape paintings by the code:

{{#switch:{{{1|}}}
  |painting = {{#switch:{{{2|}}}
    |landscape = {{#switch:{{{3|}}}
      |1701-1750|1751-1800 = [[Category:WGA: 18th-century landscape paintings]]
    }}
  }}
}}

Than all the images from that category can be moved into Category:18th-century landscape paintings and temporary category can be dismantled.

Usage

{{WGA tag |form= |type= |school= |time period= }}
