Ah - there is a cut-off occurring because you can only have 200 links on a page.

So the quantum mechanics category and page aren't linked from here!

Serious need to categorise some pages, here.

I agree. I came looking for a link to Particle Physics, but it seems to be cut off. This page needs to be cleaned up, particularly the individual articles in the category. StuTheSheep 20:29, Mar 17, 2005 (UTC)

You are free to restore the notice if you believe the issue is not yet properly addressed. I merely commented out the notice. Ancheta Wis 08:56, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

How to add categories to the physics articles

You can add relevant categories to help populate the subcategory lists. To do this, at the foot of a Physics article (see section below for Physics subcategory), add the text
       [[Category:Add physics subcategory here]]

By saving your edit, you will produce a link to the physics subcategory. To test out the view, you can hit the Preview button to check whether your chosen subcategory is working. A colon (":") before the "category tag", e.g., [[:Category:Add physics subcategory here]], will allow you to include the link to a physics subcategory in an article, without placing the article in that physics subcategory. By convention, the category tags are placed before the interwiki links, which are usually the very last tags on the article.

Note: To navigate the category lists, you can use the Category TOC links. Just click on the letter corresponding to the first letter of the article or subcategory which you seek. Alternatively, click on the next 200 or previous 200 links on the category page.

For more information, see also: Wikipedia:Category -- See the source text (click Edit this page above) for an example of the pipe trick, which forces an alphabetization in the category sequence for an item.

How to assign physics subcategories to the physics category

To add subcategories to the physics category, first view that physics subcategory page via a link from some pertinent physics article in the subcategory. When viewing that physics subcategory page, click Edit this page, and place the text
       [[category:physics ]]
at the foot of the physics subcategory page, above the interwiki links.

(The category software currently allocates 200 links per category page, whether they are subcategory or article links.)

Cleanup still needed

There are too many articles in this category. They need to be sorted into subcategories so that they are arranged by topic, not by alphabet. (If you don't already know the name of the article you're looking for, and you don't already know what each article is about, it can be really hard to find things on a very long alphabetical list like this.) -- Beland 23:19, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
