The number of stamps is calculated automatically from the uses of Template:FDC stamp row later on the page.
FDC articles in the main namespace are automatically added to Category:First-day covers and to a country-specific category based on country.
Set fdc-owned to exactly Yes or No. This automatically places the article in either Category:Owned first-day covers or Category:First-day covers wanted.
