Description

When I click on a link labelled "next 200" on an initial category page, and the categoy has 206 members, I get six entries, not 200. Thus the link should not read "next 200" but "next 6"

I was bewildered, looking for missing or lost entries until I found that the previous page said "206 entries" and thus there could not be possibly 200 more.

The intention is more-up to the next 200 links.

In order to accurately do this in all cases we'd essentially have to do the query for the next page.

Or we could just make the links "next page" / "previous page" rather than mentioning 200…
