| What's the purpose of [[:Category:Collaborative]] - Aren't all wikis collaborative? Likewise for [[:Category:Information]] - aren't the majority of wikis for sharing information? I'd suggest that these should be deprecated. --[[User:Singkong2005|Singkong2005]] 05:49, 30 August 2006 (EDT)

| : We're a bottom-up sort of place. We didn't decide on categories in advance. Each wiki is categorized (tagged) in a way that makes sense to the people doing the tagging, without regard to taxonomy (generally). It's only over time that we can start to see patterns, and then we can decide if any larger action needs to happen. In the case of the two examples you cite, I'd suggest that every wiki in those categories would need to be examined to see if those tags still make sense. A wiki about information theory might well belong in category information, but many of the wikis there might not be. Feel free to dig in to do this work!
