             Bug #: 34269
           Summary: (un)categorization actions should get logged
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
               URL: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verbesserungsvo

                    Datum_der_Hinzuf.C3.BCgung_zur_Kategorie_sortieren
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Categories
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: a.d.be...@web.de

    Classification: Unclassified


There was a request to have a log page for categorization actions (filterable
by category). This would allow
* a page list ordered by time of categorization
* better overview of the category, just like a watchlist - just like a sort of
history
* see from which edit (and page) a category comes

Of course there is already Special:RecentChangesLinked, but this has the
drawback of not listing pages that got unkategorized.
Removing categories is not trackable yet, and I think a new log type
"categorization" with actions "remove" and "add" could help. Of course, one
edit could lead to many logevents, each for one different category. I'm not
sure whether logging is the best way to handle that, but there should be
something like that. Also, changes to templates could init a series of events
to transcluding pages - which would allow us to see which page is to edit when
we want to change/remove a transcluded category.
