I've started on unit type categories but need more research to get size categories right. I have a vague memory that Your Archives had trouble with large categories making it hard to find child categories, but that was a much older version of MediaWiki.--GavinRobinson (talk) 10:24, 11 November 2014 (PST)

Thanks Gavin! I've started using your [[Category:British_Infantry_Battalions]] and also started [[Category:Battalions_with_official_diaries]]. Similarly, I'll start using [[Category:Battalions_with_personal_narratives]] too.
On Wikipedia itself I get the impression that category pages are limited for the sake of the reader rather than the server these days.
