Hello. Regarding this recent edit of yours, I noticed you attempted to add an item directly to a category page.

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. For newer editors, it's understandably a counter-intuitive system. Category pages are not intended to be exhaustive lists; in fact, they are not lists at all. Categories are navigation aids. They are merely groupings of related, existing English Wikipedia pages.

To categorize a page, you must go to the page you wish to categorize and add the category at the bottom of the page with the other categories, first making sure the page actually belongs to the category.

Additionally, the page you edited is a redirect which, for navigational purposes, is merely a link from a different title to the functional category. This redirect should remain empty, and all of the above only applies to the actual category found at Category:Footballers from Arunachal Pradesh.

Please read Categorization and Help:Category for more information and clarification.

Let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions. Thank you and have a great day! --DB1729 (talk) 16:49, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
