Category listings should be devided as close to equal as possible
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

If a category has a number of entries which, when divided by 3, leaves a remainder of 1 (such as 31), both of the first 2 columns get their sizes rounded up, leaving 1 too few for the third column - to take the example of 31, it should be divided as 11, 10, 10 (in some order); it ends up as 11,11,9.

This has been invalidated by T55130. MediaWiki will now use browser functionality to render categories in multiple columns. If category entries are not distributed equally, we should file browser bugs, but as far as I can tell (screenshots on the task) their behavior is much better than MediaWiki's.
