Categories
Please note that we have a procedure for creating new categories, which begins with a suggestion being posted on the category suggestions page. This helps the community come to a decision as to whether or not to have one and/or what the exact contents should be. Please do not just go and create one.--31dot 22:50, September 6, 2009 (UTC)

In lieu of such a discussion I have tagged your category as provisional which should elicit discussion. You may wish to post the reasons you created it there.--31dot 22:52, September 6, 2009 (UTC)


 * And I've removed the category and moved the discussion about it to the suggestion page that 31dot noted above. Go there if you wish to continue to defend why the category should exist, including possibly listing several articles that would be members of the category. -- sulfur 14:05, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Policies
Please take time to follow the links above and read our polices. For example, this is not a website you can add stolen material. We have to follow copyright laws, just like everyone else. --OuroborosCobra talk 03:34, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Spacing
Just a tip- when commenting on a talk page, keep your indentation the same with all your comments. (If you first used two ::, then keep doing it.) This helps others reading the page determine who made what comments.--31dot 08:14, September 8, 2009 (UTC)
