Basic usage[edit source]

For simple detection of the page type of the current page, use the default settings:

{{#invoke:pagetype|main}}

That will produce the following results, depending on the page type or the namespace:

Page type / namespace Output
Redirects (in any namespace) redirect
Main namespace article
File namespace file
Template namespace template
Category namespace category
Module namespace module
Book namespace book
Other namespaces page

If the module is used on a talk page, it will detect the page type for the corresponding subject page.
