Most of the lists you see in the various [[SeattleTech]] sub-category pages come from the intersection of two category tags (found at the bottom of [[WikiPages]]).

To add a [[WikiPage]] to an applicable list, simply add the necessary category tags (including the brackets) to the bottom of a [[WikiPage]] '''(be sure the page also includes the <nowiki>[[Category:SeattleTech]]</nowiki> tag as well)'''. Currently, [[SeattleTech]] sub-categories are:

<div style="float:left; width:49%">
* <nowiki>[[Category:Company]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Software]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Hardware]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Web 2.0]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Web Design]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Graphic Design]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Venture Capital]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Incubator]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:SEO]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Law Firm]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Other Company]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Media]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Blog]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Wiki]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Forum]]</nowiki>
</div>
<div style="float:right; width:49%">
* <nowiki>[[Category:Newspaper]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Website Only]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Other Media]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Group]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:User Group]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Community]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Organization]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Other Group]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:People]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Consultant]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Lawyer]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:CEO]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:CFO]]</nowiki>
* <nowiki>[[Category:Other Management]]</nowiki>

Naturally, where appropriate, please tag [[SeattleTech]] pages with multiple categories to make sure the [[WikiPage]] is on all appropriate lists. ''(For example: <nowiki>[[Category:SeattleTech]] [[Category:Blog]] [[Category:User Group]]</nowiki> will place a blog that serves as a user group's website on both the "Blog" and "User Group" page listings.)''

==How this works==
For the purposes of most the [[SeattleTech]] lists, the behind-the-scenes coding has been done. If you'd like to add "intersects" for other lists, the syntax is simple:

<center>'''<nowiki><intersect>Category 1, Category 2</intersect></nowiki>'''</center>

This then generates a list of pages that have both categories on them.

==Caveats==
The "intersect" tool is in its infancy. Sometimes it takes awhile for [[WikiPages]] to show up on the list after the category tags have been places on them. Please be patient, you can also try [http://uis.georgetown.edu/bestpractices/clear-browser-cache.html clearing your browser's cache].

There are also some known bugs in the intersect tool and changes in how the list is formatted are still being tweaked. If you have problems with using the "intersect tool" be sure to place a note in the [[ErrorLog]] and let us know the pages and intersections you were trying to make.
