Thank you for your work on category clean up.  If you put an article in a subcategory, it should not also go in the category.  So, articles in [[:Category:United States Law]] should not be placed into [[:Category:Law]] or [[:Category:Laws]].  A user who did not understand the tree-structure of categories added a lot of category tags in 2014-2015 that messed everything up.  A category should not be a subcategory of itself.  Also, if categories A B and C are subcategories of category X.  Then do not create a circle by placing X as a subcategory of A B and C.

:I'm glad to do what I can, though perhaps I'm getting lazy...categories are easier than writing.

:I thought I'd read this somewhere, but I wasn't absolutely sure, so it's good to know.  I've been doing a sort of mass-audit of categories, so it's a little hard for me to check where every category is in the tree, but I'll try to keep an eye out for this kind of issue.  Thanks for the info!  I have been finding some oddities, like Amazon.com being a subcategory of commerce, but commerce also being a subcategory of Amazon.com.  On the one hand, I think "Why did people miss this?!?" but on the other hand, a wiki a a big place, and we don't have as many active editors as WP.  I can't fix it all, but if I can straighten out some of it, maybe that will help.  In the mean time, sorry to everyone who watched the [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes page]] for the edit flood! --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) 14:17, 31 March 2016 (EDT)
