So what I'm getting from all of this is that in order for this method to work, I do need an extra page (whether it's a template or a subpage) to store information on, rather than placing it on the article page itself? That's a bit of a bummer, but I'll see how the folks at the wiki feel about it.

When I view the source, the link to the template is just floating randomly above the table. It renders correctly as data within the table when I'm viewing the page, but in preview mode the table isn't populated.



It's okay that this solution isn't fully automated; I'd imagine that the only way to do that would be to use a scripting language to check all of the articles in a category and then add them to a table. Since I have very little experience with scripting languages, that's probably more complex than this solution. If editors not updating the tables becomes a problem, I can always just move these articles into a blog instead of a page.
