==Reorganizing Collections==
So now that [[RCBF]] and the like have been reorganized to look like normal tasks, the subpages and the main pages end up in the language categories. That doesn't seem right. It's inflating the category counts of languages that have subpages, especially when there are languages with solutions that are small enough to leave on the main collection page. I think we need to remove the category links from the subpages. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 21:33, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Reorganizing Collections

So now that RCBF and the like have been reorganized to look like normal tasks, the subpages and the main pages end up in the language categories. That doesn't seem right. It's inflating the category counts of languages that have subpages, especially when there are languages with solutions that are small enough to leave on the main collection page. I think we need to remove the category links from the subpages. --Mwn3d 21:33, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
