Is there a way to find those articles that have two assessment characteristics? (i.e. High Importance, Stub) or such
edit- When assessing articles, is there a way to drill down and find those that are at the intersection of TWO qualities? (I.e. stub, but high importance, or such), when using this sort of table of evaluations: Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Theatre articles by quality statistics ----Mdukas (talk) 22:47, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
- Sounds like a job for CatScan. You can find the tool here. (The toolserver seems to be down for the moment.) Under "Wiki", type "en" in the box. Then in the "search in category" box, type one category (e.g. Category:Top-importance articles). Then select "for pages by category" and type in the other category (e.g. Category:A-Class articles). Then hit "Scan" and after a while a list of all 12 pages in those two categories will appear. Xenon54 / talk / 23:59, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
