Is there a summary of what's changed?
Well, it's completely new, so check out the manual link on the page, and the original requirements, which have been met or exceeded: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WMDE_contract_offers/Rewrite_CatScan
(note that, once my beta did all that was required, this contract offer was retracted)
One thing: when selecting depth, sometimes you want one category to be 0 depth, but the other category to be a different depth. Is that not possible?
It's explained on the manual page - just append "|2" to the category you want to use with a different depth (in this example, 2).
On closer examination, I don't think I can do what I'm trying to do with that tool.
I want to take a category tree of WikiProject tagged articles (containing pages tagged in the talk namespace), and compare to a category tree of articles tagged in the article space (normal, reader-facing categories). And see where the overlap or lack of overlap is. That requires some option to ignore namespaces when comparing page names, OR for the "check for template" bit to have an option to check the talk page of the articles in the category, rather than the actual pages in the category. Can this tool do that?
