The `Data` method on a `Page` object returns a unique data object for each [page kind].
[page kind]: /getting-started/glossary/#page-kind
{{% note %}}
The `Data` method is only useful within [taxonomy] and [term] templates.
Themes that are not actively maintained may still use `.Data.Pages` in list templates. Although that syntax remains functional, use one of these methods instead: [`Pages`], [`RegularPages`], or [`RegularPagesRecursive`]
[`Pages`]: /methods/page/pages/
[`RegularPages`]: /methods/page/regularpages/
[`RegularPagesRecursive`]: /methods/page/regularpagesrecursive/
[term]: /getting-started/glossary/#term
[taxonomy]: /getting-started/glossary/#taxonomy
{{% /note %}}
The examples that follow are based on this site configuration:
{{< code-toggle file=hugo >}}
[taxonomies]
genre = 'genres'
author = 'authors'
{{< /code-toggle >}}
And this content structure:
```text
content/
├── books/
│ ├── and-then-there-were-none.md --> genres: suspense
│ ├── death-on-the-nile.md --> genres: suspense
│ └── jamaica-inn.md --> genres: suspense, romance
│ └── pride-and-prejudice.md --> genres: romance
└── _index.md
```
## In a taxonomy template
Use these methods on the `Data` object within a taxonomy template.
Singular
: (`string`) Returns the singular name of the taxonomy.
```go-html-template
{{ .Data.Singular }} → genre
```
Plural
: (`string`) Returns the plural name of the taxonomy.
```go-html-template
{{ .Data.Plural }} → genres
```
Terms
: (`page.Taxonomy`) Returns the taxonomy object, consisting of a map of terms and the [weighted pages] associated with each term.
```go-html-template
{{ $taxonomyObject := .Data.Terms }}
```
{{% note %}}
Once you have captured the taxonomy object, use any of the [taxonomy methods] to sort, count, or capture a subset of its weighted pages.

## In a term template
Use these methods on the `Data` object within a term template.
Singular
: (`string`) Returns the singular name of the taxonomy.
```go-html-template
{{ .Data.Singular }} → genre
```
Plural
: (`string`) Returns the plural name of the taxonomy.
```go-html-template
{{ .Data.Plural }} → genres
```
Term
: (`string`) Returns the name of the term.
```go-html-template
