MediaWiki category tools
A few category-specific tools looking at Special:Specialpages:
 * 1) Special:Categories - very large (2007/Week20 - one page version)
 * 2) Special:CategoryTree - useful if you have a modern browser - hundreds
 * 3) Special:Uncategorizedcategories - the root of all evil - 53
 * 4) Special:Uncategorizedimages - the "back burner" thing - 336
 * 5) Special:Uncategorizedpages - an evil nightmare - 91
 * 6) Special:Unusedcategories - how did these get here? - 78
 * 7) Special:Wantedcategories - Dead or alive? - 481

The number at the right of each special page above is the number of items rendered for each. Obviously, Wanted categories is in the most dire need of attention. For those who like the top-down approach, you can dive straight in:
