==Subcats?== I'm wondering if those more Category- and Template-savvy than I might advise: is it possible to create templates that would populate subcategories for "All articles needing cleanup"? I have in mind trying to identify all the pages that don't cite any sources at all, as well as the pages that have no content whatsoever, as those might be priorities for cleanup. I could of course just tag with cleanup and name that as the problem, but if they could be cats, then someone could look at the list and work through those first, as opposed to coming across them scattershot. Thanks for any help you can offer! [[User:Canele|Canele]] ([[User talk:Canele|talk]]) 00:42, 16 April 2019 (EDT) : I’m not sure if this helps, but the [[MEpedia:Pages in need]] page has a link for all the pages that have been tagged with the “Citation needed” template tag. It also has a link for all the “suspiciously short pages”, which includes pages with no content. If I find a link for all pages missing a reference list, I’ll add that to [[MEpedia:Pages in need]] as well. :[[User:Pyrrhus|Pyrrhus]] ([[User talk:Pyrrhus|talk]]) 12:42, 16 April 2019 (EDT) ::Only just saw this. I was thinking on similar lines, but that we could pick which cleanup reason we wanted from a list with the visual editor. I started the discussion on [[Template_talk:Cleanup]]. It would involve choosing the a Cleanup/rewrite template rather than just general Cleanup. It could then be linked to here. I am also going to try adding Citations needed as a subcategory / subcategories here. They can easily be marked with a date, which will create an extra subcategory. I just need to make sure the date is put in automatically for those like me who add it using code [[User:Notjusttired|notjusttired]] ([[User talk:Notjusttired|talk]]) 15:01, July 22, 2019 (EDT) :::We definitely do not want new subcategories for the “Citation needed” template. This would just create the same problem that we are currently trying to solve with the “Cleanup” template. :::[[User:Pyrrhus|Pyrrhus]] ([[User talk:Pyrrhus|talk]]) 17:07, July 22, 2019 (EDT) ===Re: Subcats? -- ~~~~=== : Replace this text with your reply
