Ok, so I add a new wiki through Johns magic wizard.  We are ignoring that category first, and second, though they seem similar to me.  The template has the add template.  I find that useful for two reasons:  1) it has the [[StructuredData]] link on it, I think this may help people while they fill in their page. (much the way we thought category first/second would, and why I pushed for a tag in the form)  2) It adds the page to category wikis to add for folks who are working on those tasks.  I am unclear why it is a problem from the view point of category unknown and category first/second.  Similar to your questions: what am I missing?  Help me see the benefits/problems?

: PErhaps we need to wait until we can speak about this.  Text is just too slow and cumbersome.  I will try one more time, howeverr. :-)  I'm a glutton for punishment.  Here's how I saw things before this change:
*** category add a wiki had pages with just a url - they needed everything added, structured data, description, everything - wikis were only in this category as a time-saver b/c ray, mark and ted didn't always want to spend the time to put all the structured data in when they found a new wiki
*** category unknown engine had pages in it where someone had already put in the structured data and the engine is still unknown - this is a 2nd step
*** category unknown edit mode similarly had pages in it where someone had already put in the stuctured data and the edit mode was still unknown for some reason - this is also a 2nd step
: I suppose what I'm getting at is that this used to be a 2 step process.  Step 1 was putting in the sturctureed data and step 2 was going back to fix any data that was still missing.  I get myself in a different frame of mind if I'm just looking for edit modes and don't have to worry about other structured data.  I work differently when I'm doing step 1 or step 2.  This change that we're discussing seems to have eliminated the 2 step process which makes it harder for me to work in the way I want to work.  Is this any clearer?  If not, happening tonight?
