Extension talk:GoToCategory

Lovely!
Should have found this 1 year ago. --Subfader 17:43, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Capz?
Let's say you have a "Category:UpperCase" if you search "uppercase" it won't find it. Searching "upperCase" will do. I just wonder if it's a buig since it finds "Category:Upper Case" by searching "upper case" --Subfader 17:56, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It didn't exist a year ago, I wrote it in response to your request. ;-)  As far as the bug, it's the nature of MediaWiki.  The first character's case won't matter because, by default, MW capitalizes the first letter of every article name.  So that's why you see that behavior.  The Go functionality won't hit on pages in the Main namespase (NS_MAIN) that use wierd PascalCase either.  For this, we often just create redirect pages w/ different case options (i.e. disambiguation).  Tim Laqua talk 18:43, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Wow you indeed just wrote it :) Ok, no big thing as there are only 2 categories with ThoseCapz i can think of atm. Thanks a lot! --Subfader 20:05, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I think I quite don't understand it anyway.
 * yes: "abcd" > "Category:ABCD"
 * no: "abcd" > "Category:AbCd" or "ab cde" > "Category:AB Cde"?

 * Do pages in the main namespace exhibit differeng behavior? Tim Laqua talk 11:45, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Same, so it's only the general MW problem. Never used Go for Main since my articles all have long names you'd never search complete. --Subfader 20:46, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

3 letter search
Just recognized that it even has more added value compared to the standard search which doesn't search 3 letter words. So while search won't find "Category:The dot", the Go button will take you there directly :) --Subfader 07:12, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
