Categorization Question

As the wiki grows, there is a question over how to categorize people and places - please see the 'debate' here: Forum:Categories about people inconsistency. Currently the help pages are inconsistent re which fashion to adopt.--Fleanetha 22:14, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Parent categories

I saw a bunch of articles had national parent categories removed (Steyr is a recent example). That goes against this help page.

Always put your article into the most specific category, then also into its parent categories up to an appropriate point.

Does it need to be changed? —Oznogon (talk) 17:09, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

More examples

After all the trouble I went through regarding categorisation standardisation and such, I think this page could use four examples (or something around that) to demonstrate exactly what constitutes 'overcategorisation', as the Belor Hemlock example alone is clearly insufficient. - HTD (talk) 00:26, 7 February 2019 (UTC)
