And, due to how Categories (tags) work in MediaWiki, there is no way to search on "Joystick + CoCo". Each category/tag must be used only once for the tree to work. Top level categories might be:
Articles
Companies
Conventions
Hardware
People
Publications
Software
...and maybe others (Internet Resources), etc.
Hardware
CoCo
Dragon
Input Devices
Joystick
Keyboard
That works, but if there was a joystick ONLY for the Dragon, it can't live in both places, so we'd have to assume "Input Devices" is common, and make things like:
Hardware
CoCo
CoCo Input Devices (things here are CoCo only)
CoCo Joysticks
That would get real messy, but it's the only way I currently see, in MediaWiki, we could click on one link to see all the "CoCo Joysticks". Clicking on "Joysticks" would show everything tagged with a Joystick.
Thus, only major categories would be linked, and everything else would be unlinked categories (just "tags").
