== Adding categories using HotCat to pages == |
|||
Hi Melan, |
|||
I hope that you are doing well and learning lots. I noticed at [[Flow]], with [[Special:Permalink/24463|this edit]], you added a redlinked category which doesn't exist in the '''Category:''' namespace. Doing so adds the request to [[Special:WantedCategories]]. Here we are just testing, so there's no need to create that category, but I just thought I'd point that out as a tip when you are managing your own public wiki. Also, have a look at the [[Special:CategoryTree]] to see browse the hierarchical arrangement of categories by parent category. To find the parent categories, I find using [[Special:AllPages]], filtered by '''Category:''' namespace to be helpful. |
|||
Aside from that, whether you are adding redlinked or bluelinked (actual categories exist) to test pages, please try and remember to revert your testing. There are always administrators who can practice their mopping to clean up when reviewing [[Special:RecentChanges]], but it's also a good practice when you are running, moderating, or even editing on a public wiki to clean up one's own testing. |

Cheers, |

^The template above was me testing how to accept or decline unblock requests. Hopefully I won't actually need to do that for real here. Melan (talk) 18:26, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
Testing
Hello,
I've just been made aware of an issue with one of your tests so I'd like to remind you of a few of our rules:
- You should revert your tests.
- Your edit summaries must remain appropriate at all times.
- You must not add the bot right to non-bot accounts like your own. You may add it to a bot account for testing but only consuls can approve bots for long term use.
Thanks, RhinosF1 (talk) 06:16, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
- I will follow all the rules here from now on. Melan (talk) 10:52, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
Adding categories using HotCat to pages
Hi Melan,
I hope that you are doing well and learning lots. I noticed at Flow, with this edit, you added a redlinked category which doesn't exist in the Category: namespace. Doing so adds the request to Special:WantedCategories. Here we are just testing, so there's no need to create that category, but I just thought I'd point that out as a tip when you are managing your own public wiki. Also, have a look at the Special:CategoryTree to see browse the hierarchical arrangement of categories by parent category. To find the parent categories, I find using Special:AllPages, filtered by Category: namespace to be helpful.
Aside from that, whether you are adding redlinked or bluelinked (actual categories exist) to test pages, please try and remember to revert your testing. There are always administrators who can practice their mopping to clean up when reviewing Special:RecentChanges, but it's also a good practice when you are running, moderating, or even editing on a public wiki to clean up one's own testing.
