Alumni categories
[edit]Hello. You seem to be adding alumni categories to biography articles based on simple search matches without checking to see whether those persons actually graduated from the institution. For example, you added Category:Chulalongkorn University alumni to Ralph R. Frerichs, who only received a work award from an institute of the university. Please go back and check all of your edits, and revert those that were made in error. Thank you. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:18, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- Even more egregious was adding Chaophraya Phitsanulok, a nobleman who died in 1768, to Category:Dhurakij Pundit University alumni, a university founded in 1968, because one of the references was a thesis published by the university! Please stop your current method of editing immediately and go back to fix the mess you made. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:29, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Tituba, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Please review how EGRS categories work. SMasonGarrison 05:31, 8 November 2024 (UTC) I've removed the many men that your added to the container category with the instructions: "This category exists only as a container for other categories of Belarusian men. Articles on individual men should not be added directly to this category, but may be added to an appropriate sub-category if it exists. Please note that categorisation by gender is acceptable in Wikipedia only in limited circumstances which are set out in Wikipedia:Categorization/Gender, race and sexuality. New categories by gender may be deleted if they do not meet the tests set out in that guideline." SMasonGarrison 05:37, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
