Category:Defunct horse racing venues in the United States
Hello. Regarding this recent edit of yours.

Your edit summary states: Name of horse race track that's closed in not Birrningham International Racetrack (this was the motor speedway). It should be Birmingham Racecourse (Casino).

Birmingham International Raceway was originally a horse track, confirmed by the first source listed in the references section, so it is properly categorized here. Birmingham Racecourse redirects to a track in England; and no article exists for Birmingham Racecourse (Casino), so neither of those can be categorized here.

Generally speaking, I noticed you attempted to add an item directly to a category page, "Birmingham Race Course", which also has no WP article. See Birmingham Race Course.

In Wikipedia, we do not add articles to a category by editing the category page, we add them by editing the individual articles' pages and linking the category from there. Please see FAQ/Categorization For newer editors, it's understandably a counter-intuitive system.

Category pages are not intended to be exhaustive lists. They are navigation aids; merely groupings of related, existing English Wikipedia pages.

To categorize an article, first make sure it actually belongs to the category. Then, go to the article and add the category at the bottom of the page. To remove an article from a category, edit the article and remove the category. For instructions on how to do all this using VisualEditor, see.

For further detailed information, see Help:Category and Categorization. Let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions. Cheers! -- DB 1729 talk 14:27, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
