categories

 * Maybe reconsider Category:Heuristics? Most of the pages in this cat seem to have nothing to do with social and political phil (to me anyway). I suggest also not doing a blanket hit onCategory:Social issues, as most of these may be fodder for social and political phil, but are not really in the field. I have similar concerns about Category:Simple living, as anything in this cat that needs to have a tag on it is probably already in another relevant cat, and the contents of the gardening and camping cats do not need to be tagged with philosophy boxes! Same deal for Category:Racism; this is a huge cat, and most of the articles are not of any real philosophical import. Ditto Category:Postcolonialism. I guess Category:Political science terms and Category:Political science make sense, but, again, these are huge cats, and most of the articles are not part of philosophy. Pol sci and Pol phil overlap, but are notthe same thing. I am checking up through the cats, as you have probably guessed! I need to go do the mother thing, so can;t check any more now. I would prefer it if there were a few cats that I volunteered to go through to tag relevant articles rather than over tagging - although I don;t think you will have the problem with this tagging that you had with the logic tagging.

 * You are correct on all of those. The original list is very very overinclusive. This is also why I have only requested for ethics, epistemology, metaphysics, and aesthetics to be auto-tagged. The S+P phil wasn't ready. I have compiled this overinclusive list because I didn't want to miss anything. I don't think anyone else is adding to them, so I felt I had to consider a wider cross section. I will remove those, and several others. The goal is for almost all of the articles in the cat to be appropriate for the tag. We have some time to think about it because the bot is otherwise occupied for a while.
