Description SharkD 2008-09-01 03:36:41 UTC
Some articles belong to a series of related categories with minimal name changes. It would be useful in these cases to collapse the display of these categories. Two proposals are made here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Proposal:_collapse_related_categories

1) Replace the link to the categories with a single link to their parent category. Clicking on the link causes a list to expand showing the individual categories.
2) Render the category links as a run-on series of truncated links, such as "History of X / Y / Z", where X Y and Z lead to the individual category pages.

Hi SharkD! Sorry that nobody has taken a look at this report yet and given feedback.

Link is now https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29/Archive_45#Proposal:_collapse_related_categories and example category now does not exist anymore...
