Certainly each wikia has a difference in what is needed regarding Categories. And yes, VW is larger than most of the average wikias, but that doesn't mean there cannot be some effort made to curtail and "trim the herd".

I'm sure this has been a long time building up over many years and several iterations of admin rosters. But frankly there is no need to categorize each and every little aspect of a topic. Cats should be "broad stroke coverage" with articles offering the fine details. I'm sure most people are not opening a category page in order to search for other like pages. They are not going "Hmm, I need to know how many other characters are Benzinikinetic Villains…".

Some things sure, but not that picayune. Last time, other than renovating wikias, that *I* used Categories to search for something was on Wikipedia, going through the "Movies of 200x". Not sure exactly when that was, but obviously before 2010.
