[edit] Category:Streets in Los Angeles, California
When you added the Category:Streets in Los Angeles, California to a number of articles today, you should have removed Category:Streets in California from those articles, since the 1st category is a daughter of the second category. BlankVerse 08:40, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
- Partly my fault - I created the category after I'd seen User:TFMcQ adding the red-linked category to appropriate articles. I should have followed through and cleaned up the double-categorizations. Boy, nothing gets by you. You are truly the de facto Editor-in-Chief of Southern California. Thanks for filling that role. -Willmcw 10:28, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

- Oops! I almost checked the article history to see who had created Category:Streets in Los Angeles, California, but then it seemed so "obvious" that it had to have been created by User:TFMcQ that I didn't check. That's what I get for making an assumption! Well Willmcw has fixed all the article categorizations. I have a feeling that there are more LA street articles that aren't properly categorized, but most of those are probably like Lakewood Blvd./Rosemead Blvd. which is "hidden" by Wikipedian road geeks as California State Route 19.
