Category talk:Cervine

Something on my mind here. Should we be using fancy names like "Lapine" and "Cervine" instead of "Rabbit" and "Deer"? Or can we just cross-reference the two categories somehow? --Buck 20:38, 29 April 2008 (EDT)

I chose to use "cervine" over on Bryan's Picks because "Summer Job" was in the list and it was a moose TF instead of a deer one, there's no particular reason to use it as a Shifti-wide category. Back in the day I was careful to set up Phil's category as "Phil Geusz" in case of just this eventuality. :) Unfortunately, Mediawiki doesn't support redirecting or moving of categories, so changing categories has to be done the hard way - editing each and every article that's in them.

Maybe set up overall categories, and then make more specific ones subcategories, and the author can either flag their story for either category?

For example, we could have a Category::Feline, and a Category::Cougar which in itself is in the Category::Feline.

Too bad we can't redirect categories, but we could always subcategory them I suppose.
