Make a "Recent Changes" link to a "Recent Changes subpage for all Science Articles"

This could be done by tagging all the articles that are related to science with the Science category. The flaw with Subcategories, is that you can't do a recent changes with the Sub categories. If you would make an effort to tag them all with the general category, we could monitor change and addition to science articles and it would spur motivation to write with others in a community feel.
