+Here we'll list which categories in the [[:Category:Super-categories|category tree]] should be marked for translation (by adding <nowiki><languages/><translate></translate></nowiki>) and which not.<br>
+Generally it's a good idea to mark a category for translation, if the pages in it are/should be marked for translation.
+'''Legend''':
+* ✔️ means the category is already marked for translation
+* ✔️❗️ means it should be but isn't marked for translation
+* no emoji means it's not decided yet

 ==Other tasks==
-* currently [[User:Paula]] changes all categories from singular to plural for consistency. Only Paula can do this. It consists of 3 steps:
+* all categories should be in plural form (Drafts, Fediverse projects...). This was not considered in the past, but [[User:Paula]] did a mass-action to change that. If you find a category where it's still wrong let Paula know. Only she can use [[Special:ReplaceText]].
-** using the [[Special:ReplaceText]] page to make sure all articles link to the new category
-** moving the old category to the new name
-** using [[Special:PageTranslation]] to mark all pages for translations so the categories are renamed on translated pages too
-* define which categories, pages, etc should be translated (exclude e.g. [[:Category:Articles with issues]]) and prepare them for translation by adding these: <nowiki><languages/><translate></translate></nowiki>
 * check [[Special:NewFiles]] and add license information and source
 * make sub-categories of large categories where it makes sense
-* make sure all pages are categorized correctly, e.g.:
+* make sure all pages are categorized correctly
-** lots of [[:Category:Templates]] pages should be moved to sub-categories
 * decide which pages should be included in the [[Template:Navbar]]
+* writing and improving the [[:Category:Editing guides]] is generally the task of [[Project:Guidance]], but questions like "how should articles be categorized" (see [[Project:Style guide]]) also fall into our jurisdiction.

+==What was going on on February 14th and 15th?==
+|-
+|[[User:Paula]] was moving some templates and categories and then starting an automated process to change all referrals to those templates and categories. This was done to follow the {{Internal link |target=Join_the_Fediverse:Style_guide#Capitalization |link-name=naming scheme (see Capitalization and Naming scheme)}} and for consistency. Here is what has been changed:
+* Template:Internal Link -> Template:Internal link
+* Category:Meta Media -> Category:Meta media
+* Template:LangSwiInd -> Template:Language switch (I had renamed that because the template had issues and I thought it was because of the name, but it was something else)
+* Template:Infobox App -> Template:Infobox app
+* Template:Infobox App short -> Template:Infobox app short
+* Template:Infobox Platform -> Template:Infobox platform
+Paula did:
+* First create a [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice]] to warn of broken links, categories and templates ✅
+* Move the pages, e.g. Template:Internal link to Template:Internal link ✅
+* Use [[Special:ReplaceText]] to let the wiki do the rest automatically ✅
+* After it was all done checked reports and category tree for mistakes ✅
+** Some things simply took time to be fixed ✅
+* And also [[Special:PageTranslation|marked pages for translation]] ✅
+* Marked Template:Infobox for translations and incorporated sub-pages ✅
+* Figured out why translations of Template:Language switch are wanted (was simply used where it wasn't necessary) ✅
