FR: set operation on categories: AND, OR, XOR, etc.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: mjanich

Description:
A category represents a set of pages.

It would be useful, if you can do the usual set operations OR (join), AND, XOR, etc.
on these sets.

Example: you have categories in two dimentions: a) time b) content. Now you would
like to see all articles that are both in time=2005 AND content=meeting minutes
(in wiki syntax [[Category:2005]] AND [[Category:Meeting minutes]]). Especially
usefull with wiki as collaboration tool.

that it's enabled on Wikipedia or Meta (it IS, however, enabled on Wikinews)
