Board Thread:A REALLY BIG ANNOUCEMENT/@comment-31986068-20170211200328/@comment-26250328-20170218190659

I got the badge a few months ago or so when I was fixing up categories. The wiki had about 400  categories, half of them were nonsense like "asdfghjkl," "lol," and etc. I spent a few hours removing these categories from stories by hand, because deleting the category page doesn't actually remove categories from the stories and doesn't fix any problems.

The wiki had a huge organization problem, if you understand what I mean. It was really hard to find stories because many of them had no categories at all, or their categories were completely nonsense. Heck, there was one called "if this gets deleted, im kinkshaming" which is completely impossible to remove since it's on a blog post.

I don't have a problem with people adding shared categories to their story series, or whatever, because that keeps them organized. But when they add 15 different categories to a story that have nothing to do with it, it gets terribly annoying.

That day I also used the random page button, and the pages without categories tool, and read a bunch of stories (some terrible, some boring, and some hidden gems) and added appropriate categories to them and removed the spam ones.

By the way, it's only a few months later, and the categories are already full of nonsense and spam. If you see me editing them, I'm not badge farming. I'll even slow down how fast I edit, perhaps limit myself to how many I will edit in a time frame to specifically avoid badge farming.

I'm really mad about the categories, okay...?

I'm also trying to clear up why I have the sugar hype badge... if it's even possible, it'd be nice if you could remove it from my badges since it has such a negative connotation.
