Tagging categories[edit]

Hello,

Thanks for your help but categories can only be deleted through speedy deletion if they are empty. Deleting a full category would leave a lot of articles with red link categories which is a bigger problem (see WP:REDNO). SO please do not tag any more categories speedy deletion if they have articles in them. You can nominate them for deletion instead at WP:CFD. Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

@Liz: how can that be true when there is a specific speedy criteria only for empty cats WP:C1 & General Criteria also apply to them? I tagged Category:People_with_type_2_diabetes, Category:People_with_diabetes, and Category:People_with_Endometriosis and they were all populated yet speedily deleted 73.93.5.246 (talk) 03:06, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
