Supercategory for maintenance categories[]
I propose supercategory Category:Maintenance categories (or Category:Memory Alpha maintenance categories) to contain all of these existing categories:
- Category:Memory Alpha orphaned categories
- maintenance category for all "uncategorized categories".
- Category:Memory Alpha provisional categories
- maintenance category for all "under discussion categories".
- Category:Memory Alpha featured articles
- category for all featured articles. Use via template {{featured}} only.
- Category:Memory Alpha pages needing attention
- supercategory for "special" PNA categories - also category for PNAs that don't belong on those subcategories. Use via template {{pna}} only.

Uncategorized articles[]
[Unknowns] Hidden category under Lists for article's like Bellus, Zyra, and apparently Unit XY-75847, where we don't know what the article's subject is. - Archduk3 17:56, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
- Support. I think this is a good idea for sorting purposes. Otherwise, these articles otherwise will remain in Special:UncategorizedPages indefinitely. Putting it into an "unknown" category shows that the page has been considered, but in all probability it never will have a "real" category given the extreme vagueness of the reference.–Cleanse ( talk | contribs ) 01:38, June 14, 2011 (UTC)
