Categorized or Un-categorized
Why is this page listed on the Uncategorized Categories page? Doesn't make sense. --THE FOUNDERS INTENT TALK 17:07, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- The fact that the category doesn't have any parent categories might have something to do with it. - Talk 19:46, 10 June 2008 (UTC)]
- Can we put it into some hidden category?Carn (talk) 17:58, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Create a BOT to alphabetize and organize categories automatically
As someone who has been doing this manually for years, I hereby dutifully beg of anyone who is technically proficient and knows how to create and run a bot that will:
- Automatically sort all Categories on each article and category page alphabetically;
- Create a uniform system for where to place categories on each article and category page that commence with numbers, such as years of birth/death, centuries, and any category that starts with a number/numeral.
Please see the centralized discussion at Wikipedia:Bot requests/Archive 61#Create a BOT to alphabetize and organize categories automatically. Thank you, IZAK (talk) 08:55, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
