| − | ===Interlanguage links to categories===
| |
| − | Interlanguage links work just as they do for regular articles; <tt><nowiki>[[de:Kategorie:Mathematik]]</nowiki></tt> in [[:Category:Mathematics]] connects to the German counterpart. This can be a useful way to compare coverage, or to look for articles in need of interlanguage links. Note that the different languages may have adopted different standards and practices for categorization, so a given category might not exist in other languages.
