[edit] Categories

Some form of a "debate without debate" seems to be taking place on this page with almost daily changes to the categories. I can see that there are different points of view as to whether some categories should be listed here or not. I do not have a strong opinion on the categories either way, but I think the almost daily changes should be settled with a clear discussion. My suggestion is:

1. Please express the reasons why specific categories should or should not be listed here.

2. Please type your opinion on the talk page first before making daily changes to the categories.

3. After a week or 10 days, let a group decision be made as to what the categories need to be.

4. Thereafter, please let the issue rest in peace.

Thank you. History2007 19:17, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

I think the categories' relevance to this particular article is obvious, but if anyone actually wants to make a case for removal, I'm certainly willing to discuss it. The person removing them seems to be a single user, who regularly acquires new accounts after being banned or suspended and has been repeatedly removing Category:Jesus from a large number of Jesus-related pages for several weeks. He never provides coherent reasons, and ignores attempts to discuss the issue with him except for occasionally insulting other users – or most recently, creating similarly-named accounts to impersonate them. As far as I can tell, this editor, who is not acting in good faith, is the only person to have supported removing the categories. EALacey 20:11, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

I see what you mean. There seem to be similar names to existing users. But in fairness, I must admit that he/she is funny. Maybe he will just stop doing this once he has had his fun. History2007 22:26, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
