Very few people in this category can be confirmed as pedophiles. Many are child molesters or child sex offenders (for which we already have a category: Category:Child sex offenders), but it lacks actual, verified pedophiles. Though in many cases they are, child molesters are not always pedophiles. There is many other possible motives: for example, child molestation -- and murder -- is probably considered one of the most horrific crimes by society, and thus it may be commited by someone who wants to cause outrage, fear or digust; alternatively, it could be done as revenge to either the child or the child's parent. And, even if it was done for purely sexual reasons, we have no way to know that that person's primary interest is in children -- perhaps that's just a sidedish for them (a "pedophile" is defined as one who is primarily sexually attracted to children -- note that it does not imply that they have committed any crimes or hurt children). I ask you to not just throw my argument out the window because you find pedophiles and child molesters disgusting: remember that Wikipedia is here to teach people knowledge, not morals or potentially false information. Unless we can get a psychological report that the person is a pedophile, or a confession that they are (a good example for evidence to add the category would be this, for example, in which "Dr. Oda" examined the criminal and found him to be a pedophile). If we can not come to our senses and remove people who may not be pedophiles -- remember, we're presenting this as if it were a fact that we know, absolutely -- this category should be removed from Wikipedia.

This category seems problematic -- in general, the consensus I have seen on VfD has been that either people are sufficiently famous in their own right or the articles are merged to the one for the famous spouse; simply being related to someone famous is not generally considered sufficient in itself to establish notability. A little unsure on this one and would like to see some comments. -- Tabor 3 July 2005 19:28 (UTC)

I just shudder thinking about a list categories for every county a railroad passes through at the bottom of every railroad article. Possibilites (not exclusive): Make into a list, add information to San Diego County, California, merge with parent Category:California railroads. -- Tabor 3 July 2005 19:18 (UTC)

This is a misspelling that was detected in early June.
Please delete as non-controversial; I did not go through the renaming process because I was sufficiently annoyed when I saw this that I just wanted to take care of it right away.

We've recently got rid of a number of the pointless terminology categories, such as Category:Computer terminology, Category:Military terms, and Category:Economics terms. This one should also go, with its contents merged into Category:Water transport. - SimonP July 3, 2005 16:50 (UTC)

Appears to have been nominated for deletion (note Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/TV shows about law enforcement) in June, and then never voted on because it was listed at VfD instead of here. Stated grounds for deletion is that it duplicates the existing Category:Crime television series. This is just a procedural/cleanup nomination; I offer no vote. Bearcat 3 July 2005 16:31 (UTC)
