Description Splarka 2009-08-26 22:16:55 UTC 
Almost all links in MediaWiki have a descriptive tooltip. Generally this is the page title, or an informationlet about the link. 

Subcategories in a category listing have no such tooltip. They should have something, even if it is just the page title prefixed with the localization of "Category:".

Alternately, if you're a crazy byte-miser, you could wrap the descriptive <span> giving subcat/page/file count around both the category link and the number of subcats, but luckily nobody is that pedantic.
Comment 1 Alexandre Emsenhuber [IAlex] 2009-08-27 12:39:17 UTC 
This is due to CategoryTree that subclass CategoryPage and CategoryViewer. If you go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Cats?notree=1 you'll see that the tooltip appears correctly.
Comment 2 John Mark Vandenberg 2011-11-04 03:45:36 UTC 
In addition to the sub-categories not including tooltips (title attr), the pages listed also dont include tooltips.
