Hey there -- what are you up to, removing that category from all those articles? Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:11, 12 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Nomoskedasticity: which category? I am removing categories that are over-categorized, specifically diffuse categories where both the parent and child category are present in the article.--Mvqr (talk) 14:13, 12 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
American fraudsters, e.g .from Sholom Rubashkin. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 14:14, 12 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Nomoskedasticity: There were a bunch of those. Rubashkin is in Category:American people convicted of fraud which is a sub category of Category:American fraudsters.--Mvqr (talk) 14:16, 12 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
The relevant guideline is WP:SUBCAT: Except for non-diffusing subcategories (see below), pages for sub-categories should be categorised under the most specific parent categories possible.--Mvqr (talk) 14:23, 12 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
