I was kind of wondering about the categorisation of smashers who aren't from the USA. It seems that, for example, the Dutch smashers are added to the categories 'Smashers', 'European Smashers' and 'Dutch Smashers'. Since Dutch Smashers is a category within European Smasher, which is on its own a category within 'Smashers' it seems pretty obvious that Dutch Smashers are also European Smasher and also Smashers. Shouldn't they be added to just that one category instead of all three of them? I don't think Wikipedia uses this system either. Is there an admin around who can clarify this for me? --[[User:Utto|Utto]] 22:06, March 30, 2007 (GMT) | I was kind of wondering about the categorisation of smashers who aren't from the USA.

: One reason is that while they are part of the subcategories, this doesn't exclude them from the other categories. For example, [[KoreanDJ]] is still a smasher, even though he's a pro. This helps because they are listed in all applicable categories. You're right in that it it's obvious, but that doesn't remove it's usefulness. -- [[User:Delphiki|Bean]] 23:46, March 30, 2007 (GMT) | |||
