"We're introducing a change to the recently-adjusted category links functionality. Now, links that were formerly red links will have class="newcategory" added to their code, so you can change the view to red links in your personal CSS. To maintain consistency across Wikia, however, we will not be allowing this change in wiki custom CSS. " This is just an absolutely terrible idea, im sorry. The point of the red links is to tell you that the category is not created. There is now no way a person can know if the category has been made or not now and added to the category tree. Wikia is very worried about consistency but the consistency in this case should not be changing the color of category links to blue, it should be keeping it MediaWiki default.
