Category Pages v. Normal Pages
I just moved the main page here. This feels a bit unsuitable, since it's not the main purpose of category pages, but since there was so little content on it, it seemed like the best way to help people find good content. As and when it gets expanded to something more like a full page, it might be good to move it back. For now, it's easy enough to use redirects. I could use help with this, still working out a sensible policy... Robin 04:44, 24 October 2012 (IST)
- Agreed it's not an orthodox use of categories. I noticed it a couple of times in the past too but said nothing because it's hardly a major issue. I agree that quick access to useful info is the most important criterion in such matters, but this needs to be balanced against possible confusion about their correct useage for new editors. I'm happy to leave as is for now but to be very careful about extending such useage
