Don't bother creating a blog. If we did so every time a category was deleted, we would never see the end of it. When a page is deleted it is always for a reason; in this case, that there were too many categories and that I felt that categories listing villains death were too much, meaning that all of them should go.

The only thing to do if someone disagree with a deleted category/page is to go see an admin, other than the one who did the deletion, explain what was deleted, why it was, and why they feel that it should be recreated. If several admins agree it can return, if not (sorry for being rash) they can kiss their category goodbye and that's final.

Can you imagine how fed up I am with categories? I have been insulted by users who could not fathom that they had to follow the rules, sometimes in pathetic attempts at using my native language, as if I was not able to speak English fluently. So as another admin advised me, I am no longer afraid to be seen as a tyrant. Given that insulting another user or recreating deleted pages without consent should warrant a ban, I consider myself lenient, believe it or not.

Categories have become a downright PLAGUE on this wiki. There is not a single one which is not constantly plagued with entries that do not correspond, no matter how hard we work to weed them out. I have wasted entire weeks in this extremely tedious task, only for users to undo it in hours. This has gotten to the point that many pages have over 50 categories for crying out loud! Even worse, articles now consists in three lines that sometimes do not even mention the story, and a crapload of categories. It should be the contrary! Almost all edits nowadays consists in adding categories. The situation is way out of control and I confess that my patience has run very, very thin.
