== {{user|Look2See1}} and categories ==

As you can see at [[User talk:Look2See1]], I have recently had two run-ins with this user and posted multiple times asking him to 1.) explain his edits which were confounding and 2.) please stop editing one small section of a much larger category tree to make that scheme inconsistent. See https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Look2See1&oldid=809266735#Album_categories for a conversation where he made many edits which were not only incorrect but hardly even intelligible and now https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Look2See1&oldid=809266735#Category:Lists_of_countries_in_Africa where he insists on changing list categories to being "lists of lists" when they aren't. I really don't know what to do here. {{ping|Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars}} since you helped me talk some sense into him last time. ―[[User:Koavf|Justin (<span style="color:grey">ko'''a'''vf</span>)]]<span style="color:red">❤[[User talk:Koavf|T]]☮[[Special:Contributions/Koavf|C]]☺[[Special:Emailuser/Koavf|M]]☯</span> 02:21, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

:Look2See1 certainly needs to be educated on how categories work and is encouraged to look at how existing schemes are set before embarking on creating their own schemes because they make sense to them. Before making mass changes of a similar nature, L2S1 should attempt to discuss these on appropriate talk pages and with experienced editors, especially those who do a lot of category maintenance. --<font color="blue">Star</font><font color="orange">cheers</font><font color="green">peaks</font><font color="red">news</font><font color="black">lost</font><font color="blue">wars</font>^{[[User talk:Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars|Talk to me]]}

:*DHeyward, you are mistaken. The user has already been blocked here for disruptive editing. Commons is most definitely not irrelevant; he was indef blocked on Commons for doing exactly what he is continuing to do here ''despite repeated requests to stop and gain consensus''.

*'''Support''' if they are indeed repeating the behavior that got them indef blocked on Commons. That and the fact that they don't seem to have ever left a single edit summary, and the fact that all of their zillions of edits are on Categories. The fact that they have now vanished (from their utter deluge of non-stop edits), and it's been four days, means it's unlikely they are going to try to justify themselves here.
