[edit] Creating new Categories jams this thing
You wrote: Okay, I tried to follow the directions in the main article, and hoped I was doing it right, but it looks like something went amiss. I wanted to propose a new category. It would be called Category:Seafaring films, soon to be populated with lots of movies about seafaring, as quickly as I'd find them, I'd go ahead and add them in. But by following the instructions, it appears that the "Articles for creation" now belongs to the C. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.177.27.22 (talk • contribs) .
- You make a very valid point. Due to the very nature of the MediaWiki software, we have often encountered category-related problems here. I'm afraid there's no easy technical solution. However, there are two workarounds:
- You can use the {{cl|category name}} template. In your case, you could use {{cl|Seafaring films}}.
- The requests here are always looked at by real people and not bots. This means that so long as you can express what it is that you are asking for in the AFC proposal, we can accommodate the request.
- I hope this helps. (P.S. I created Cat:Seafaring films for you too.) -- ShinmaWa(talk) 09:58, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
