==Catergories==
==Categories==
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. Thanks, [[User:JDano|JDano]] ([[User talk:JDano|talk]]) 13:50, 31 March 2016 (EDT)

: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)

::As I recall, either you or JDano created a little page of guidelines for categories. As a subpage of your user page or talk page. I can't find it now, perhaps because of all the changes you made, that cluttered up RC, for which you apologized above. I forgive you of course, but can you tell me where it is? I have some comments I'd like to add. I want to create a link to it on my own page. I think that page can become a generally useful tool.

:Thank you, as well! I haven't much time now, but I skimmed over your list, and it looks pretty good. Thanks! ([[User:DavidB4|DavidB4]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) xx:xx, 1 April 2016 (EDT)
