::Well, actually, thank you very much. I was hoping someone would delete it. And, uh, sorry that I appear to have offended you with the "higher in power" statement, I completely understand how that must have felt to you. Have a nice day, then.

:::So did you delete the ''references'' to the category, or just the category itself? That is, are we stuck with a lot of pages which need to have those cats removed? If so, lemme know. Because this is a no-go. Categories are meaningless unless they declare something unambiguously. [[:category:Restaurants]] is for things that are restaurants; not for things which ''might be'' restaurants. If we start down the road of adding adverbs to category names, we're on a very slippery slope indeed. Plus, you're kinda wrong about the J&G stroies being ''possibly'' non-canonical. They're fully canonical — not only by the rules of this wiki, but by virtue of ''[[The Land of Happy Endings]]''. The explicit point of that narrative was to honour the artists of the 1960s by bringing their work into the continuity of the DWM run by suggesting that the Eighth Doctor ''regularly'' dreamed of J&G. Take a look at the last page again; it's pretty clear. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">18:42: Wed 12 Oct 2011 </span> | :::So did you delete the ''references'' to the category, or just the category itself?

::::It does appear there's lots of articles stuck with categories that needed removing. | |||
::::I've removed them manually, yes, I know, bot and all that, easy to do without manual editing. But it gives me a reason to look at stories I'd likely not get around to looking at. 27 isn't that many. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 14:48, October 13, 2011 (UTC) | |||
