Please bear with me, as I am still learning where to respond to these
discussions so as to insert it into the proper position in the train of
conversation. Here, I want to respond to Steve & Timwi. Both of you seem to
support my original idea of placing a main Category & a subcategory into the
same article so that the article appears in both lists. Thank you for that.
Getting back to the basic argument & to stay grounded in this, what is the
argument some still have against, say, adding the Category: Cancer deaths &
the Sub-category: Lung cancer into the same Article? OR, somehow having the
software be able to gather all of the articles with the various cancer
subcats. into one master Cancer deaths list? Forgive me if I seem to be
repeating old material, but, I believe these basic issues need to be kept
out in front.
Thanks,
Marc

Yes, this would be good. But better navigation for categories with
large numbers of items would be good. Thousands per page if
necessary...
