It is fully automatic if you include it on your monobook.js page, as
described (I tried it on that image, check the history:-)

You probably clicked on the link I provided as "[1]". This uses the
"script test mode", which unfortunately does not carry to the next
page, so no text was added.

Right now, I am working on category removal via a "(-)" link after
each category. Once that is done, I'll glue it together to have a
"replace" mode for free :-) Any suggestions as to what the link for
replacing a category should look like? "(X)", maybe?

Cheers,
Magnus

Nope, I added it to my monobook and force reloaded, etc. same as when adding all scripts.


Symbol for replacing a category?  Hm.  Adding is (+),  removing is (-);  (X) would be "delete"  I think, not replace. What about (<--) or (¡ê) ? Or more detailed, though longer; (--><--), (+ <--), (<-- +), (<-- + -->). I'm thinking about the icons used on "merge" templates on wikipedia; hard to represent in a few one-line characters :) You could even go simpler and use (*) though people won't know what it indicates right away. What about (¡¾)? remove one category, add another?
