Why is this a hidden cat? Mglovesfun (talk) 11:33, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I hide categories until I'm reasonably sure that they are workable. I only created it in the last couple of days. It should have hundreds of members when mature. I wouldn't mind it getting some attention from those good on English grammar. I don't know whether hidden attracts more of that kind of attention due to its odd placement in the category display. I'd prefer that it be given at least a week as hidden.
I look for opportunities to advertise on the discussion pages. I am finding that there are wording deficiencies in many adverb definitions that would lead a user to believe that some adverbs only have a "manner" and not a "degree" sense. To remedy that, I would need help going through all the adverbs ending in "-ly", for which unhiding the category might be a help. DCDuring TALK 12:24, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
