:On a related note, I wasn't certain whether category names should be plural or not, so a concensus needs to be reached there. [[:Category:Companies|Companies]] had more pages than [[:Category:Company|Company]] and [[:Category:Products|Products]] had more than [[:Category:Product|Product]], so that's where I categorized things for now. I'm mentioning this now because you may want to go for [[:Category:Product Lines|Product Lines]] instead of [[:Category:Product Line|Product Line]].

:There's also the topic of capitalization. Again, sentence case ([[:Category:Right to repair|Right to repair]]) was more popular than title case ([[:Category:Right to ~~Repair~~|Right to Repair]]), so that's where I put things. Case is also a consideration in the case of [[:Category:Product Line|Product Line]]. [[User:Waldo|Waldo]] ([[User talk:Waldo|talk]]) 13:17, 18 January 2025 (UTC)

::I haven't been able to discuss anything on the discord today, and won't be able to until this evening, but I think that sentence case is probably the way to go, and would at this stage support a sitewise sentence case policy. I've added you as a bot, so no more captchas! you've filled in plenty already lol. I have no strong opinion on pluralisation of category names. I think that products and product lines might both end up being article types, because for certain products it will just make sense to have their own page, and I don't want to be too dogmatic about it especially with how young the wiki is.

::::If you want to take this on I have also support having both categories you can create a `Product lines` one (in sentence case since we are going with that) and move appropriate ones there. However the should also be changed in the articles afterwards (but I assume you know that since you have been a categorization machine). In another note, regarding this temlpate [[Template:Delete]] I will edit it to make it more obvious that this is a user request as it now seems like an administrative note but be mindful of that to avoid confusion in the future. There already templates moderators use to mark pages for deletion.

:::::I'll probably take that task on later. Right now, the most important thing is to make sure that all pages are categorized and that all category pages exist and are reachable from the root category. I'm now taking inspiration from the Article Types page you linked.
