Wikipedia:Auto-categorization/Wikipedia namespace

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is a list of uncategorized pages in the Wikipedia namespace as of 26 Nov 2004, though an update was run as of 6 April 2005 to remove most of the already-categorized pages and to add subpages to the list. The following tasks need to be accomplished:

Assign pages that should be kept around to an appropriate category under Category:Wikipedia.
Create new subcategories as appropriate. Subcategories of Category:Wikipedia usually have the word "Wikipedia" in the name to make it clear that they are for internal use (i.e. not part of the encyclopedic content of the site).

While we're at it, it would also be helpful to:

Identify redundant or out-of-date pages and merge them (or nominate them for merger) with more current pages (see Wikipedia:Duplicate_articles), or add them to Category:Wikipedia archives if there is no appropriate merger target.
Identify spurious pages and nominate them for deletion (see WP:VFD).
Rename pages with malformed names, such as when they do do not conform to the "only capitalize the first word unless part of a proper noun" rule.

Please delete items from this list when they have been categorized and otherwise taken care of to your satisfaction, to prevent duplication of effort.

After this has been accomplished, some general cleanup of the Category:Wikipedia tree will probably be necessary.
