Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed
Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: delete.py -cat follows subcats
Initial Comment: when using -cat on delete.py, it follows sub cats and deletes them also.
can this possibly changed to only delete pages in the cat pointed to in in -cat
and the current code be moved to the logical "-subcat" to follow the pattern on other scripts?

It is now possible not to delete pages in subcategories, using the new parameter "-nosubcats". The behavior of the "-cat" parameter was not changed, to avoid breaking backwards compatibility.
