Description
What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?
Searching for a category, for example, Category:Aerial photos of California
, will look reasonable and can be added. But it's a redirect category to Category:Aerial photographs of California
.
When using HotCat, for example, entering the former will resolve to the latter. In fact, if you use HotCat to edit the category via the web interface and save it as is, it will resolve to the correct category.
How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?
I've uploaded pictures that had unexpectedly invalid categories that I had to then resolve. This can leave uploads in a silently not quite correct state, harder to find than they should be.
Who will benefit from it?
Anyone who doesn't have the proper names of the categories they're looking for memorized.
Anything else you would like to add?
