What I've done

Eliminated a few categories

I eliminated a few duplicate categories where one category's name is in title case (Right to Repair) and the other is in sentence case (Right to repair). I chose to keep the sentence case ones (reason).

Moved many articles under one root category

  1. Added a few pages to their respective companies' categories (e.g. added Steam to Valve Corporation).
  2. Eliminated categories Individual, Company and Product (reason).
  3. Categorized a few companies under Companies and a few products under Products.
  4. Moved a few categories to Todo, which I created under CAT.
  5. Moved a few pages and categories to CAT.
  6. Categorized a few categories under Wiki root, such as Companies, Products and CAT.

What I need to do

Move remaining articles under the root category

  1. Examine the following special pages (https://wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Special:SpecialPages or sidebar → Special pages) in order to find articles not under the Wiki root category:
  2. Add the above special pages, as well as the Todo category, to the documentation.
