Forum:Is there a way to move category content?

I want to move a category that has some edited content in it. I'm not talking about the pages that are in the category (which we have to re-categorize page by page) but rather edits made on the category itself. Is there a way to do this, or is attribution for category edits not as important as other namespaces? --Article editor 08:55, February 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, it's currently technically impossible to move categories from one title to another title. Copying and pasting is the only way. Renaming a category by creating another one will inevitably mean the loss of page histories. Some wikis mitigate this by listing the contributors to the original category in the edit summary when creating the new category. Bot scripts that "move" a category by creating a copy at another title and then moving pages to that new category also list the contributors to the original category in the edit summary.
