hi all
i just joined this list so i'm not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this, but how do i get a master list of all wikipedia categories and sub-categories? i looked a the database download page and took a peek at pages_articles.xml and see that one can parse out Categories from the mediawiki tags embedded in the text. but is there some other dump with all the categories (even ones that may not have articles) as well as their subcategories available somewhere?
apologies in advance if this was the wrong list to post this question to, but if someone could direct me to the right one it would be most appreciated.
thanks much!
Isn't one of the dumps offered something like "categorylinks"?
