Point?[edit]

What's the point of leaving category redirects around? Wouldn't it be simpler to delete them all? Plutocow (talk) 21:26, 8 December 2022 (UTC)

Since I deleted them all, and since this page now only serves to keep the deleted categories in Special:Categories, I deleted this as well. @Christopher if you want to recreate it, you can, let's just wait for the special pages to update accordingly. Plutocow (talk) 21:56, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
Was there a discussion on deleting the category redirects? They served the same purpose as ordinary redirects (albeit more niche), and I can't see how they would've been doing any harm. Christopher (talk) 17:56, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
People were adding pages to them as if they were actual categories, and thus keeping them around was probably too confusing for newer users. Plutocow (talk) 18:56, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
