Category talk:Maintenance

Subdivide categories
Seeing as there are many categories here, and there will only be even more in the future, I would propose to divide most of the categories into subcategories. To make it easier to tell which are subcategories and which are maintenance categories, subcategories would have a sort key of "*".

Some ideas would be:
 * "Article maintenance" for categories dealing with the content of articles, such as Category:Verify or Category:Stub.
 * "Template maintenance" for categories dealing with the content of templates, such as Category:Templates with no documentation (currently only two categories, but it could get more, such as a category for deprecated templates)
 * "File maintenance" for categories related to files needing work, such as Category:Broken images‎ or Category:Images violating copyright‎.
 * "Errors" for categories related to improper template parameters and other template errors, such as Category:Missing achievement or Category:Pages with script errors
 * "Article classification" for categories containing pages where there is not a goal to empty the category or the category cannot be emptied without further information or development. Some examples are Category:Upcoming, Category:Conjecture‎, Category:Outdated‎, and Category:Soft redirects
 * "Pending action" for categories about pending requests such as deletion, moving, splitting, etc.
