[edit] Category namespace tree/map
Hi Greg, I have just seen your work on the category namespace map. It looks very interesting. We are planning here to use Wikipedia categories as a taxonomy for a research project on information extraction and knowledge management. Will there be any chance in the near future to see uploaded FreeMind files with trees of arbitrary depth and/or the software code (i.e. released under GPL)? Thanks for feedback, as I said, this categorymap work looks terrific. Ciao.
- Hi, I haven't worked on it since the last serious database changes were made, but I would be happy to give it a another whirl and release the code/instructions under the GPL. Give me a couple of weeks though as we're currently doing an office move at work and I'm a tad busy! Add User:GregRobson/categorymap to your watchlist, I'll add any details there.

[edit] Wikipedians in Warwickshire
I've started a new category Wikpedians in Warwickshire, would you like to add yourself to it?. I'm feeling rather lonely at the moment :). G-Man * 23:02, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- You are lonely no more! I've also tweaked your entry, so there are now two under 'G'. Greg Robson 16:22, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Brum meetup
You noted on the Wikipedia talk:Meetup/Birmingham page that you'd have a look for a venue for the meetup - did you get a chance, and if so have you any reccomendations? Thryduulf 22:23, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
- I shall have a look first thing Saturday. Unfortunately I started back at work today, and have work again tomorrow! Greg Robson 22:15, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- Cheers for your work on this. As its many months since most people probably looked at the list, you should post a message to the talk page of everyone on the possible and probable lists. I'd help but I haven't got time unfortunately. Thryduulf 23:34, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Category map
Saw your category map stuff, I was wondering if you had seen this on the toolserver. It's really cool stuff. the wub "?!" RFR - a good idea? 18:13, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, that's certainly handy for double checking! Greg Robson 22:34, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wikisource categories
Hello, Greg. My late father-in-law's grandparents were all born in Birmingham (in the broad sense), so we have a little in common apart from things that have wiki in their names.
Wanting to consider the use of Wikisource for Maori texts, I was looking around Wikisource and made a comment on a previously unused appropriate talk page. One of the big bosses very soon deleted that page and the project page. So I've asked him where we discuss categorisation, but I have a feeling he's not interested. You obviously are (and seem to be one of the few seriously "English-language" admins there). Where can I track down the latest discussions about the category structure(s) people want?
