Forum:Upcoming change to category functionality

Just to make people aware - Wikia is going to change the way to-be-created categories are displayed in articles tomorrow. Bottom line, they will no longer be appear as red links and are only going to appear on Special:WantedCategories. -- Porter21 (talk) 23:56, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

Update
As of today, it's possible to have links to non-existent categories displayed in red again (via CSS), but we're only allowed to do so for personal use (i.e. Wikia doesn't allow us to add it to the site-wide CSS). I've added a gadget ("User interface" -> "Display links to non-existent categories...") which allows users to have the category links displayed as they were before the change. -- Porter21 (talk) 19:50, August 17, 2011 (UTC)
