'''WikiProject Categories''' has been set up to help manage the categories of Wikipedia and improve them.  The goal is to categorize all articles in a way that is consistent with the guidelines at [[Wikipedia:Categorization]].

Discussions about categorization policy happen at [[Wikipedia talk:Categorization]].  That page is also the place for solving specific issues related to category organization.

To discuss deleting, merging, or renaming categories, see [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion]].

Please direct all talk to [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Categories]] if you would like to help or comment on the project.

There is a [[/uncategorized|task force]] that puts uncategorized articles into categories.

You may wish to view {{subpages}}.
