*'''Why is 'education' not listed on the [[:Category:Wiki Topic]] page?'''
*'''Why is 'education' not listed on the [[:Category:Wiki Topic]] page?'''
We have several thousand [[Special:Categories|categories]] at [[WikiIndex]].  Someone decided that was too many to list on one page.  So that person decided to organize all categories as a hierarchy, and list only the "root categories" at [[:Category:Wiki Topic]].  [[:Category:Education]] is a sub-category of [[:Category:Learning]], which is a sub-category of [[:Category:Knowledge]], which is one of the root categories listed at [[:Category:Wiki Topic]].  Is there a better way to handle our thousands of categories?  If you want a list of *all* categories, click on the word "[[Special:Categories|Categories]]" at the bottom of the page and then click "next" a few dozen times.  --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 15:43, 4 August 2009 (EDT)
