Thanks, and more on categories
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me! I noticed that you added the "American People" category to many biographies. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but most biographies on CP are of Americans, so the category probably shouldn't be overused -- more descriptive categories should be used instead. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 14:49, 8 April 2018 (EDT)

:It would be better if it were subcategorised by occupation and/or state. Also, there are two categories which should be merged: [[:Category:Americans]] and [[:Category:American People]].

::We have a [[Special:Categories|searchable index of categories]], if that might be useful. If you need categories we don't have, then creation is definitely an option. If you are certain that one is needed, you can do this yourself. (Just remember to search alternative category names first, and if creating one, ensure remember that categories have all non-conjunction words capitalized). If you aren't certain, it never hurts to ask first!
::Also, I've merged the category "Americans" into [[:Category:American People]]. Thanks for mentioning that problem! Unfortunately, some duplicate categories get created, and are sometimes used for awhile before being noticed as such. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 09:51, 9 April 2018 (EDT)
