Changes

Another technical question about the wiki. I noticed that [[:Category:Broadcasting]] was not appearing in the subcategories list for [[:Category:Media]], despite being a subcategory. Similarly, [[:Category:Television]] did not appear in [[:Category:Broadcasting]]. I removed the descriptor text from [[:Category:Television]] and now it appears as a subcategory of Broadcasting, but I don't know why this would make a difference. Furthermore, Broadcasting doesn't have any descriptive text other than the cats, so I wouldn't know what to do to make it appear listed as a subcat of [[:Category:Media]]. Do you have any idea what's going on? I'm baffled. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 12:13, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

: I suspect some sort of caching problem.  [[:Category:Broadcasting]] was also categorised into [[:Category:Entertainment]], and it was showing up there.  So in [[:Category:Broadcasting]] I swapped the order of its two categories, to see if that changed which one it showed up in, and it showed up in both!  So then I reverted your change to [[:Category:Television]] and it still shows up in [[:Category:Broadcasting]].  So I suspect that it was the act of editing itself, not what you took out, that caused it to appear.  [[User:Philip J.
