In tweaking the new uploaded pages I discovered that, although they all contain a category tag at the end of the page, I have to edit each imported article at least once before the category is taken into account. I'm doing that now, and it is a pain. But I understand why [[MediaWiki]] does this: one generally wants to modify the categories on the imported pages to fit the categories of the website they are imported to, so [[MediaWiki]] waits until the imported file is edited before taking into account its category.
