MediaWiki is Anglo-centric by default, so for languages with a lot of diacritics (accented characters), a lot of additional work is required to sort entries correctly.Ī sort key specifies under which letter heading, and where in the category list, the page will appear. Also, MediaWiki groups accented characters separately from their unaccented version, so pages starting by À, Á, Ä, will be listed under separate headings, instead of under heading A (and not following A, but following Z). This is probably a bug, and has been reported in Bug 33614.īy default, a page is sorted within a category under the first letter of its name - without the namespace. "Anne" appears to be duplicated, but what is meant is If a page tags categories Maryanne and Anne then the Category breadcrumbs will show
For example suppose Maryanne is a subcategory of both Mary and Anne. This creates the potential for what appear to be duplicate entries if a category with multiple parents and more than one of its parents are tagged on a page. (At least in MediaWiki 1.18.2) if a category is a subcategory of more than one parent, both hierarchies will be listed, but the tagged category will be stripped off all but one of these. If $wgUseCategoryBrowser is set to true, under the first list each category is listed again, breadcrumb-style, with all its parent categories, sorted alphabetically. On a categorized page, categories are displayed in the Categories: box strictly in the order they appear in the wikitext. Category tags, along with interwiki language links which appear below the Tools section on the sidebar, are usually added at the very bottom of the page for the convenience of other editors. To add a page or uploaded file to a category, simply edit the page and add the following text (where Name is the name of the category you want to add it to).Īny number of Category tags may be added to the page and the page will be listed in all of them. Individual wikis may have their own top-level categories, such as Category:Contents in Wikipedia.įor a complete list of all categories which have at least one page, see Special:Categories.įor a complete list of all created/edited categories, including the ones that don't have any pages, see Special:Allpages/Category: (note the colon at the end). Categories should form a hierarchy, so unless the new category is the top-level category on the wiki, it should also be assigned to a parent category. They can also just be added to a page, which creates a "red" link, then that page can be edited and saved. New categories can be created before assigning any page to them, in the same way as any other regular page. To link a category page within a page as a normal wiki link (without adding the page to the category), prefix the link name with a colon. The usual place to add it is at the bottom of the page. To assign a category to a page, simply add the link "]" to the page's wikitext. at the end, an ever present, automatically generated, alphabetical list of all pages in that category, in the form of links.at the beginning/top, an optional part may contain text that can be edited, like any other page,.The category pages themselves contain 2 parts : When a page belongs to one or more categories, these categories appear at the bottom of the page. If you open the " Category:Advanced editing" page, you will see a link to this page there. For example, this page belongs to " Category:Advanced editing". Each of the pages in the Category namespace category, a grouping of related pages, and contains an index for the pages of its category.
