:With utmost respect, the basic idea is that our work goes into article space when it is ready. If you want to start working on an Unfree state article (which I believe you have the right to do), create a new page at [[User:TheAmericanRedoubt/Unfree state]] and put the list of categories there. After you write an article that you feel is ready for the public then move or have an admin move it over the Redirect article. Everyone here wants you to be a happy and productive editor. But a good tailor does not want his stitches to show, so we ask you to keep your work-in-progress hidden from public view until you feel that it is ready.
:On categories, to answer your question, in 2008, the "unwritten rule" of not putting an article in a category if it is placed in a subcategory was discussed with Andy at [http://www.conservapedia.com/User_talk:Aschlafly/Archive45#Wikiprojects] and we can find many other precedents for that "unwritten rule."
:I see that in some cases you have put a category into itself as a subcategory. Please do not do that.
:There have been CP editors in the past who have spend countless hours perfecting the category tree structure. Most of them have now retired, so I accept your observation of some breaks (not caused by you) in the category structure. The fact that there are other mistakes that need repair does not mean that you should add to the list of breaks or adopt bad practices. I hope that this helps.
