Container category?
This is currently a container category, and as such should just include categories. However at the moment it has 272 articles in it. Either these need to be taken out and re-homed, or this category should not be a container category. Dunarc (talk) 20:18, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * added the tag in 2017. I don't see any reason for it to be here.  There aren't good subcategories for many of the entries, and the category isn't that large. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 01:23, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the replies. I think the change to diffuse is probably the best for the moment. Dunarc (talk) 20:23, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
 * , Agreed. Someday by state, century, and subfield but even then, it wouldn't strictly speaking be a container category as such where it's inappropriate for an article to be in there: it would just be a system that is completely diffused so there's no need for any article to be in there directly. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:59, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
