: Example:
:* [[:Category:Scales by number of tones]] (correct, to contain categories such as [[:Category:7-tone scales]])
:* [[:Category:Scales by size]] (correct, to contain categories such as [[:Category:7-tone scales]])
: Aside the fact that there are multiple redundant categories for various topics (which is already noted with [[:Category:Todo:merge categories]]), it is often the case that pages about a topic and pages in a set are mixed together in one or many of those categories. [[:Category:Scale]] is a good example of that phenomenon.

: I think there is a way to move and reorganize existing pages and categories efficiently using Cat-a-lot, but I'm not very familiar with it, and I don't know if I even have the user right to use it for that matter. --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 22:38, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

::: Thank you for the first note in particular. I replaced the example with ''Category:Scales by size'' in my previous message for clarity. I hadn't created the category yet at the time of writing that, so it seems I changed my mind afterwards.
::: Also, concerning the use of Cat-a-lot, I know there is already a "manual bot" user, [[User:Keenan Pepper category edits]], which can use Cat-a-lot, but I would feel out of place to use that account, since it's associated with [[Keenan Pepper]]. Could I create a similar account for myself which I could then use for Cat-a-lot work? --[[User:Fredg999|Fredg999]] ([[User talk:Fredg999|talk]]) 00:34, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
