@The Drover's Wife: Re these edits: [1] [2] - the article is in Category:Australia television stubs which is a subcategory (via Category:Television in Australia, Category:Australian media by medium, Category:Media in Australia of Category:Communications in Australia, hence my removal of Category:Communications in Australia. Is there some guideline that says an article must be an a category other than a stub? Mitch Ames (talk) 08:32, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Australian television stubs is an editorial category highlighting articles that need work. It is not a subject category, it is absurd to think that any casual reader would know they need to look for the article they're after in an "articles that need editorial attention" category because it's been pulled out of the user-facing category tree, and any editor who isn't you would tag the resulting article as "uncategorised" because it functionally is. (I'm not sure if Category:Australian television stubs] is supposed to show up publicly but either way, this obviously shouldn't have been removed.) Please try to act like less of a malfunctioning bot. The Drover's Wife (talk) 08:35, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You seem not to have answered the question. Is there a WP/MOS guideline that says an article must be an a category other than a stub? There's no need for a rant - a simple yes (with a link) or no will suffice.

Note that stub categories are "publicly" visible - ie to readers who are not logged in. Mitch Ames (talk) 09:40, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea, but if there isn't it's because it's blindingly obvious to every other editor on the site. Not for the first time, these edits make no sense and you are virtually never able to come up with an argument why they do except to say - quite literally - "why can't I do it anyway even if it doesn't make any sense?". If it wasn't for a couple of linguistic quirks I'd literally be suspecting these posts were made by a bot with no human input. The Drover's Wife (talk) 09:46, 1 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
