Hans,
Ok, I figure only the page names are copied.
One last question if before I start adding text..
I don't quite understand the mechanism behind pages such as,
http://wiki.puredata.info/en/Category:objectclass
http://wiki.puredata.info/en/Category:vanilla
Can you please tell me where the list of objects come from?
