Hmm... adding this to this thread because it kind of fits in with the idea
of HotCat.js.
What about the ability to mass-add images to a category? I'm thinking of
cases where people have created a gallery with images but none are
categorised; this happens a lot and it's a pain to open every image and edit
to add the category. Something like Magnus's category move javascript, where
you can select images in a category and move them to another, but activated
for galleries.
No I totally disagree, if there are many images organized in a
gallery then the gallery should already be linked to a category. I
have been busy taking these duplicated images out of Categories and
leaving them in the article galleries. It's would be the same as that
User who created 1000's of species categories with all the photos
duplicated in the category that were already in the individual
galleries, Way too much duplication. Magnus and others have that
great tool for showing galleries and categories on the screen and
some photos are in up to 6 or 7 different categories and galleries,
simplification is the best way. [[User:WayneRay]]
