I removed [[:Category:Sports roleplaying]] from one or more of your league pagesIf your article logically belongs to a subcategory already, it's redundant to add it to the main category as wellIt's reasonable for an article to belong to one factbook and possibly one main category - it's rare for it to need more categories than that.

Please see the Village pump before you add anymore categories. New (non-factbook) categories need to be a community decision, not just a single user with an idea. The sports terminology one is offensively long and in my opinion totally unnecessary. Bring it up for discussion before you add any more, please. → Fris Θtalk 00:47, 29 Dec 2004 (GMT)


I just spent more minutes than I wanted to spend fixing Sports roleplaying and Category:Sports roleplaying (see Talk:Sports roleplaying). Please stop moving the main articles into the category description. I don't care if you think it looks better or whatever reason you have for moving it there, because it doesn't make any difference.

Category descriptions are not articles.

You can't link to them properly, you can't redirect to them, and many of the normal wiki functions such as Search don't work properly there. Please don't try to make them articles - link to a proper article instead.

I've reverted your changes in categories before, but perhaps I didn't explain why. Now that I've explained in great detail, I would appreciate it if you would not make me do it again. → Fris Θtalk 14:40, 29 Dec 2004 (GMT)
