You are correct. Creating a page "test" and adding to the page [[Category:Bar]] does exactly what I want. That is, it creates two links above my text "Category : Bar" each pointing back to Category and Bar category pages. The problem I am trying to solve is to have this done automatically by MediaWiki without me having to do anything. The MediaWiki documentation says I can create a subcategory by prefixing a colon to the category tag as in [[:Category:Bar:]] and saving the page, which I am doing. Then, when I go to the page "test", and add content to it and save it, just below the tabs menu on top of the page, the text "Category:Bar" appears. I would have thought that MediaWiki is smart enough to make these texts into links, the same way as if I have inserted in the page "test" the tag [[Category: Bar]]". I don't know if MediaWiki is capable of this, or I need a templates with parameters, etc. I hope I made the idea clear. To create a subcategory from the parent category, and to have a link back to the parent category be added automatically. I was under the impression that it is possible to do this. But I could be mistaken. On Feb 1, 2006, at 2:24 AM, Rob Church wrote:
