I don't think that I'm describing my problem very clearly.  I'm trying
to edit the following page:

* http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Indenting_%22throws%22_in_java

When I click on the "edit" link, I should see something similar to this:

    some text

    some more text

    [[Category:Foo]]

Instead, all I see is this:

    some text

    some more text

One would assume that if the "raw" version of the page didn't include a
[[Category:Foo]] link, then the published version also wouldn't include
any category information.  The weird thing is that the published version
of this particular page includes two categories; "Review" and "VimTip".

So what I don't understand is, why can't I change these categories?
I've been editing Mediawiki pages for 4 years, and I've never seen
anything like this.

Thanks in advance for any help!
