::Won't different students need to know about different authors? Someone who is investigating "catastrophism", "pseudoscience", "mythology", and perhaps other subjects, may find Velikovsky a relevant author? I'll see if I can get a second opinion on the general use of categories on conservapedia.com. It seems to me, that you're either an author, or you're not. --[[User:Eric2009|Eric2009]] 09:59, 15 February 2009 (EST)

:::I agree thyat a student looking at say "catastrophism" or "pseudoscience" would find V a very useful case study. I suggest the "author" category should guide students to finding the great writers of world literature. [[User:RJJensen|RJJensen]] 10:51, 15 February 2009 (EST)

::::I'd say that "Authors" is a good top-level category for all authors regardless of level of success. Included amongst its subcategory could be "Great Writers of World Literature". A problem I see, however, is edit or talk page warring about who fits in said subcategory. [[User:WesleyS|WesleyS]][[User Talk:WesleyS|<sup>Hello!</sup>]] 10:57, 15 February 2009 (EST)
My suggestion would be to subdivide the "Authors" category into either genres or eras, because as it stands, that category has 3 subcategories and 396 articles. I personally agree that V merits being listed amongst the authors, but we're going to have to do some work in subcategorizing the authors category.
