Household code
Actually, I moved it yet again, per WP:SINGULAR. And I've set up redirects for Domestic code, Haustafel, Haustafeln and Household Code. The easiest way is to search for the exact term you want, and clock on the redlink that appears above the search results. Anyway, thanks for your work on the article.

New Testament Household Code
No such article - and I don't think it's appropriate to add a red link in this way. Was this a mistake? Dougweller (talk) 06:51, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
 * You indicated that you executed Redirects for Domestic code, Haustafel, Haustafeln and Household Code. So I'm unclear as to what was red @06:51, 20 February 2013 and where it was. If it's not OK now, please let me know. Thanks. Afaprof01 (talk) 19:21, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry - it was red, and I fixed it. StAnselm (talk) 20:36, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

HotCat Question
I've read everything I can find about HotCat, but can't find how to activate it to use it on my edit page. How do I bring up the window with the HotCat dialog? Thanks! Afaprof01 (talk) 05:38, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Go to Special:Preferences, select Gadgets tab at the top, then under Editing tick the box next to HotCat, then click save at the bottom of the page. -- Patchy1   05:41, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

I re-checked my Preferences, and HotCat is checked. I hit SAVE again. I still don't see anything on my WikEd page that I use to bring up HotCat dialog. (It's probably right in front of my face and I'm missing it). Thanks! Afaprof01 (talk) 06:39, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
 * HotCat doesn't have a dialog (like Twinkle tends to use). Instead, where you see Categories at the bottom of the page, you should see a (+) at the right end of the category list, which is used to add a new category, and a (++) at the left end (right after the word categories) which is used to make multiple changes at a time.  You should also see a (-) after any existing categories (that aren't included via template), which would be used to remove those categories.  If you don't see any of these things, force-reload the page. &mdash;Darkwind (talk) 07:56, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, also, you don't use HotCat from the edit page (while you're editing), it's used from the article itself. HotCat edits are automated and are done separately from ordinary, regular edits. Please see "How to use" at WP:HOTCAT. &mdash;Darkwind (talk) 07:59, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
