After all my bad-talk about Wikiphilosophy being violated -- Im in agreement with Erik that different ways of looking at wikipedia more dynamically, more focused, more intuitively -- like an intelligent category scheme, etc. Im not opposed to.
But I like to boil things down to the essentials -- A category scheme, in addition to doing most of that other stuff, should also not be limited to a particular *language, rather be a way of giving dynamic content from the whole of WP content, based on wholistic databasing approach. -- i.e language as simply a factor of a page, rather than a separate web location. There could be a universal numbering system for categories that is different only by the language its targeting. ---
Kinda getting into Ebay territory there, but hey -- as far as Wiki goes -- Wikipedia is the Ebay of Wikis. Gadzooks! you say? I understand these different efforts are underway -- I just not sure if the language issue is being considered as much as I (me) would like it to be.
