Hi Nadjiggle.

Not sure if it is because you may be using the visual editor, but it looks to me like you're adding the code on some of your article edits.

It is a bad idea to add this category like other categories, since this category is already transcluded onto the article when the article uses the template.

If a stub article becomes expanded so much that people remove the stub template, the idea is that the article should also automatically be removed from as well. However, this is only possible if only but not  ifself is hardcoded into the article. If both are hardcoded into the article, editors will have to remember to remove both of them at a later date, and it is pretty likely that people will forget to remove one of them, creating a mess. It is a lot simpler never to hardcode into the article text.

And very nice work sorting out which items go in what rooms.
