Thread:User talk:CodeCat/idea for ja-kanjitab/reply (3)

The handling of categories as implemented in the MediaWiki back-end is completely insufficient for Japanese. I describe some of the details in the relevant thread on my Talk page. The underlying problem is that a single Japanese term as spelled might be multiple Japanese terms as read, such that one string must be indexed under multiple readings. The MW software can't do this at present. Compare the nine readings at, and the one single location where this kanji is listed in Category:Japanese pronouns.
