> Categories used for maintenance functions should always be hidden from the general reader. It does not present a good impression if a non-editing reader can look at such a category and see all the articles that are flawed within your community.

I disagree with that. In fact, I'm using templates with explicit warnings (e.g. Stub, ,   ) to mark flawed articles and to put them into maintenance categories. I think it is important for non-editing readers to know that a page is incomplete/flawed. These templates also communicate the ambition of a wiki to provide reliable information (and to make it clear when it doesn't) and the existence of a functioning process to improve the wiki. And they might even provide motivation for readers to edit an article.
