Hey @[[User:CATalyst|CATalyst]], I see you have recently made a number of edits moving pages to the category: namespace and leaving behind redirects. This has not been the way we have been doing this for a reason. These pages served as commone term/theme pages that defined relevant topics to consumer rights. Categories don't need (and in my opinion) should not have that lengthy summary above all the pages that belong in them. Creating a category and adding a link to the relevant article would be enough. | Hey @[[User:CATalyst|CATalyst]], I see you have recently made a number of edits moving pages to the category: namespace and leaving behind redirects.

Moving pages to category namespace
Hey @CATalyst, I see you have recently made a number of edits moving pages to the category: namespace and leaving behind redirects. This has not been the way we have been doing this for a reason. These pages served as commone term/theme pages that defined relevant topics to consumer rights. Categories don't need (and in my opinion) should not have that lengthy summary above all the pages that belong in them. Creating a category and adding a link to the relevant article would be enough.
Another reason for this, apart from our organizational scheme, is that pages in the category namespace do not show up in searches. Having a redirect pages combats this but it is not neccessary. I appreciate you trying to help out though, our documentation is still a work in progress so the confusion is understandable. For some info on categories and how we plan to use them see Project:Categorization (though terms and incidents are not properly documented as of right now)
