:Yes, sorry about that. That issue completely skipped my mind until after I had finished. — '''''[[User:Dannyboy601|<span style="color: SlateGray;">Dannyboy601</span>]]''' ([[User talk:Dannyboy601|talk]])'' 18:22, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
== Category descriptions ==
Why are you removing perfectly valid category descriptions? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:13, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
:Sorry, I've been offline for a few days. It's because:
:#The category names are perfectly self-explanatory. No one's going to end up at [[:Category:Volcanoes]], for example, and need any explanation as to what types of article are listed there.
:#As far as I'm aware, the majority of categories on Bulbapedia don't have descriptions (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). It's the exception, not the norm, and I thought to myself, "Well, since I'm here, I might as well change these to match the rest of the site".
:#If I recall correctly, many of the descriptions were awkwardly worded or had poor grammar, so I decided to go with the nuclear option and get rid of all of them.
:So, yeah, it's mostly because of redundancy and consistency. It's not the sort of thing I'd have changed had I not needed to edit the category pages anyway. [[User:Dannyboy601|Dannyboy601]] ([[User talk:Dannyboy601|talk]]) 23:58, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
