Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Barbara Higbie, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. In addition, please read the documentation regarding restrictions in assigning categories based on sexual identity. Higbie's article has no text supported with a reliable source where she self-identifies as the categories you applied. Finally, be sure to look at any category's description before adding it to an article. Your edit to Teresa Trull was reverted because the general category you assigned has more specific subcategories that should be used when applicable, and the category's documentation states that explicitly. Thank you!NOLA1982 (talk) 19:53, 7 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
