That is what I finally did :)
Additionally, the margin / line height could be reduced to have more categories visible.

Current value (from base.css): ul li, ol li { margin:0.5em 0; }
I'd reduce it to 0.1 em by adding this CSS sniplet: #SelectCategoryList li { margin: 0.1em 0; }
Thomas, if you like this idea, add it to the CSS ;-)
(1 more please :)
BTW: Thomas, IIRC I wrote you that you should change the gardening-green border of the category selection to something matching the bentoo style. My next CSS examples will have "border: 5px solid red" *g*
It would be really helpful if it would be collapsible and browsable
list. See: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_talk:SelectCategory#Long_Cat
egory_List
That would probably require some patching - if you check the HTML source of the edit page, you'll find something like this:
<li>[x] category</li> <li> [x] sub-category</li>
(The changelog says the extension previously used a multi-select listbox, that might explain it.)
The can be changed somewhere in Mediawiki:..., but changing it to a <ul> / <li> "tree" (which would be required for collapsing) means hacking the extension code.
That would be really cool thing to have categories to choose from without having to scroll long way to see "Save" button. Thomas :) (one more please)
SemanticMediaWiki Queries. IMO, Semantic MediaWiki is more important then this extension.
OK, good point. I have to admit that I forgot about that because my (customer's) wiki doesn't use SemantikMediawiki.
However, there's a IMHO good solution on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SelectCategory#Fixed_by_users : "Only assign Category if [[Category:Categoryname]] is in a separate line" - see there for details. This also means that categories that are not listed at the starting of the line will not be extracted to the category selection box, but that's not a real problem IMHO - it just means they stay in the text edit box.
I would not worry about categories all around the place. I put them at the bottom of the article as I find them, so that will be solved (mostly).
Thomas, can you change this in the extension code?
With this one total of 3 please :)
