Subject: Re: Reorganizing Topics
Using my "breadcrumb" syntax of:

==[[CATEGORY:QM:GPL|QM:GPL]]==

Doesn't say where things *go*.

It says where they *came from*.

It's a link *back* to its "category". So the category topic doesn't
know about your new topics until you tell it.

I easily fixed this by

1) finding your specific topic
2) highlighting the topic name (item-id) and putting it into the
clipboard
3) clicking on the convenient breadcrumb you left for me, in this case
the link to CATEGORY:QM:GPL
4) and there I pasted in your topic, as a local link. To dress it up a
little bit, I put in a linktag for each so they would not be all upper
case characters.

If you want your links to these "gone" from the Learning QM topic
(CATEGORY:QM:LEARNING), you'd simply edit that topic and remove the
references. I'll leave that to you to decide.

As a side note, this whole "category" thing was my own idea, in an
attempt to help people find stuff if they didn't know what to search
for. I see no similar feature in Wikipedia, and hope that my decision
and implementation wasn't too arcane.

Thanks again for all your good work, John.

Best,

j.
