Category:Authors overhaul

Currently Category:Authors (and subcategories) are mostly a remnant from a time when FL used to show author information on specific branches, which it hasn't for years. Additionally it serves to categorise Fate stories by authorship, which is information that we still receive. Subcategories of this category are currently often outdated, and due to the fact the game doesn't give the info any more, hideously incomplete. I propose to sunset that first use, categorising branches by author entirely, and overhaul it to purely provide fate story information. In practice this would mean doing the following:

1. Remove every manual use of [[Category:Author]].
2. Delete all categories that are now empty
3. Remove all content from subcategory pages

I agree, without strong feelings. -- RagCall (talk) 08:13, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Agreed! Aximillio (talk) 12:41, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Agree with steps #1 and #2. But if we happen to already have a few lines written about any of the FBG writers, why delete the content? Adnoam (talk) 09:19, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Agreed with Adnoam. Concerning information on authors, I propose creating a single page about FBG writers and move it there. Yestarhumeler (talk) 14:48, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Step 1 has been done. -- RagCall (talk) 15:56, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
