{{user category|description|userbox|userbox2|userbox3|userbox4|userbox5|userbox6}}

description (required)
Begins with a verb after the automatic introduction of "This category contains the user pages of Wikipedia editors..."
userbox, userbox2, userbox3, userbox4, userbox5, userbox6 (optional)
The location of the userbox. Type it how you would transclude it, i.e. do not include the Template: prefix, if it's in the template namespace, but do include the User: prefix, if it's in userspace.

Example

edit
Note: remove the |nocat=true in the example, when adding as a header to category pages, such as: Category:Wikipedians interested in the Boston Red Sox.
{{user category|are fans of the [[Boston Red Sox]]|User:Jerem43/ubx-b-redsox|nocat=true}}

This category contains the user pages of Wikipedia editors who are fans of the Boston Red Sox.

To add your user page to this category, use the following userbox:

{{User:Jerem43/ubx-b-redsox}}
This user follows the
Red Sox religiously

To add your user page to this category without a userbox, copy and paste the following code:

[[Category:User category/doc]]
