::Awesome explainer! I have not done any categorising work on a wiki before so I would not know. Thanks {{smiley}} -[[User:NottNott|<span style="color:#e67e22">NottNott</span>]] <small>([[User talk:NottNott|talk]])</small> 22:25, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

::Hi Heedy! I brought the same issue up yesterday with NottNott here. Perhaps you could explain the benefit to you. Is it site navigation as you imply above, is there something more? [[User:Sam.Watson|Sam.Watson]] ([[User talk:Sam.Watson|talk]]) 11:09, 4 June 2020 (UTC)

:::{{Re|Sam.Watson}} Yes, categories make it easier to find related articles and they are part of site navigation (just look at the bottom of the article for the category navigation bar). Also, there is no reason to ''not'' categorize things. [[User:Heddy|Heddy]] ([[User talk:Heddy|talk]]) 14:43, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

== EndMyopia Wiki: Launched! ==

Thanks to everyone who has done a terrific job on getting the wiki up to scratch. Definitely a team effort, and I think it's paid off quite nicely. Always more to be done, but the basics look pretty taken care of. Wiki's looking good. We're on the front page of the main site, it's been promoted in Facebook and there should be a video coming out at some point.

[[EM:admin guide|Admin specific]]: the next two to four weeks will be a good barometer of how much [[EM:vandalism|vandalism]] can be expected over time, and whether things need to be changed or not. I'm heavily in favour of keeping it 'create an account, make an edit', but if need be there can be additional restrictions.

Try to check in on [[Special:RecentChanges]] every once in a while to see if anything unsavoury is happening. I might be overestimating the amount of vandalism we'll get, we must wait and see. Don't be afraid to [[Special:Block|block users]] if necessary.

Re your change to [[Astigmatism]] - I think the blog does say that you shouldn't reduce both spherical and cylinder at the same time. (But I'm new here, so I may be wrong.) [[User:Divenal|Divenal]] ([[User talk:Divenal|talk]]) 20:14, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

:{{Re|Divenal}} Yeah, I think I remember reading that on the blog too. I reverted my edit. Thanks! [[User:Heddy|Heddy]] ([[User talk:Heddy|talk]]) 20:16, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
