::: Ted, sometimes you have to create the cats and link it to ''existing'' cats, otherwise you cannot find them without visiting the categorized wiki page itself, or looking on wanted cats. The categorization is only useful if it make at least one hierarchical tree. --[[Wolf Peuker|Peu]] | <small>[[User talk:Peu|talk]]</small> 18:10, 27 October 2006 (EDT)

:: I disagree.  Redlink categories are just fine, because they're tags.  Like tags at del.icio.us - we decided on purpose here not to impose a hierarchical category structure - of course one might emerge, but there's no reason to enforce any kind of scheme at this point - I'd guess at least half our wikis don't have categories at all - that would be really useful work, tagging everything - then if some semblance of structure emerges from that, great!  The idea is to be bottom-up.
