I do a lot of work with categories, and could really use the ability to delete categories, so that I do not have to add to the speedy deletion backlog. I am active on enWP, simpleEnWP,deWP and simpleEnWikt as well, so if you want to count edits - that should add up to a bit. I speak German natively and English pretty well too. I will understand most French and Italian texts as well. I am not an admin anywhere else, but I do believe that I will make a good admin here :) --rimshottalk 11:47, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

- Neutral quite worried about lack of edits to user talk space. Patstuart 05:20, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
- Support. Seems to do useful work on category cleanup - sysop tools will help with that (where there is no good place to redirect an empty category to). WjBscribe 05:42, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
Comments
- Comment Hmm... Shouldn't categories be redirected instead of deleted? -- Bryan (talk to me) 21:44, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- If you look at my edit history you will find that I add category redirects where necessary, and speedy deletion tags everywhere else. For many accidentally created categories, deletion is the right choice (recent example). --rimshottalk 23:14, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
- I personally often delete empty categories. However, sometimes a redirect might be usueful, generally I would say it is not. --ALE! ¿…? 13:20, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
