no consensus. The most coherent case for "keep" seems to be MatthiasPaul's unindented "Comment" at 23:00 on 18 December, but not everyone was convinced by it. I can see both sides of the arguments, and do not find policy reasons for giving one side more weight than the other. Therefore the categories will be kept for now. I will also add {{math banner}} to the talk pages, which might usefully have been done earlier in order to attract more participation via Article Alerts. – |
