==Confused about some of your actions==

Hello Mr Pollo.

from your recent commits, you seem to be deleting self-titled categories. From my understanding of [[Consumer Rights Wiki:Categorization]], this is incorrect.

From what i've read, all pages should be in a category which is self-titled. Or am i misunderstanding something ?

Please provide clarification. Thank you ! [[User:Plankton|Plankton]] ([[User talk:Plankton|talk]]) 04:05, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

:Not sure exactly what edits you're talking about, but if it is where the actual original page for the category has been deleted, there's no reason for it to exist.

::No i'm talking about pages which had a category of the same names with further tags in that category, and where Mr Pollo removed said category and put the tags straight onto the page. [[User:Plankton|Plankton]] ([[User talk:Plankton|talk]]) 13:03, 24 October 2025 (UTC)

:::Hello! As the Common terms category is not mentioned in the Categorization page, I figured those articles only needed the common terms category. Although, if you would like to make a self category for every article in [[:Category:Common terms|Common terms]] and add that category to all the terms category pages, we would need to ask higher staff. @[[User:Keith|Keith]] thoughts?

:::::I feel like we should keep the Common terms category the way it is, as users are more familiar with adding that category to articles compared to the pagename category and then adding the common terms category to that.

==Optimum==

in the summary when creating the [[Optimum|page]] you mentioned incidents will be added but that was in April. will it be expanded upon? [[User:SinexTitan|SinexTitan]] ([[User talk:SinexTitan|talk]]) 22:13, 18 January 2026 (UTC)

:Hello! Yes I’ve been meaning to continue that article for some time now. I added my sources to the [[:File:Optimum.svg|Optimum logo file]] for safe keeping if you would like to see.

==Merge of https://consumerrights.wiki/w/BMW_introduces_proprietary_screw and https://consumerrights.wiki/w/BMW_Proprietary_Screws<nowiki/>==

Hey Pollo,

I've seen that you've started the merge process. I agree that I didn't look around the wiki enough on this matter. Tho IMO [[BMW introduces proprietary screw|the page I made]] is much more full of information than [[BMW Proprietary Screws|the one you started]]. Please use most of the stuff I wrote. I spent 1-2 hours looking around for info. Please value my time spent.

Thanks,
