Hi, just an idea for a change on Mix'n'Match. When I edit a catalogue on MnM, I often use the "names in other catalogs" function as here it takes little effort to add the name from all catalogs and it's much easier to create new items. I think this feature should be emphasised/made visible a lot more and edits could be more far reaching if they wouldn't necessarily focus on individual catalogs but on names. It also encourages editing catalogs which are not in the list of newly added ones. I know that there is the "creation candidates" link but that is quite limited at the moment. Perhaps this option could be highlighted on each individual catalog or suggested per topic? Another option is showcasing smaller thematic sets like the ones I've created here:

Hi Adam, I have added a Top groups page to Mix'n'match, seeded with the examples you gave on-wiki. Anyone can add and edit them under their user name on Mix'n'match. A history is kept (not displayed ATM though). I have added them to the main page as well as a "Top groups" tab, and links to "human creation candidates" and "top groups" are now in a separate box there as well. "Names in other catalogs" is now bold in the drop-down, but I am not sure how to make it more visible. There are probably other thigs we could do with the "top group" lists.
