Hey Danny. I understand the reasoning behind what you've said, but as others have retorted in this thread, why change the entire functionality rather than educate users? Please understand where I am coming from. The CSS fix was the least you guys could do to remedy the situation for those of us adamant against the change, but it does nothing for the normal everyday user. You guys would rather change the entire functionality of something and let users remain oblivious over teaching them why categories are red linked when they truly 'exist'?

I have made a point (as well as Kangaroopower and Porter21) that you can easily compromise all issues... Leave categories red linked, navigate users clicking red link categories to the actual page rather than the edit of the page (like you already have) and post helpful pages on w:c:Help that actually educate the users rather than leading lambs to the slaughter.
