wikiproject Categories
WikiProject Categories has been set up to help manage the categories of Wikipedia and improve them.
 | This is a WikiProject, an area for focused collaboration among Wikipedians. New participants are welcome; please feel free to participate! |
The goal is to categorize all articles in a way that is consistent with the guidelines at Wiki: Categorization.
Discussions about categorization policy happen at Wiki talk:Categorization. That page is also the place for solving specific issues related to category organization.
To discuss deleting, merging, or renaming categories, see Wiki: Categories for discussion.
Please direct all talk to Wiki talk:WikiProject Categories if you would like to help or comment on the project.
There is a task force that puts uncategorized articles into categories.
You may wish to view all subpages of this page.
