Came across this one:
[[Category:Football (soccer) terminology]]
The items in the category are not, as you might think, articles about soccer terms themselves. Rather, they are all concepts related to soccer, that have been put into this category for the (IMHO dubious) goal of producing an automatic "glossary" of soccer terms.
I've noticed some of these sorts of categories before, and in a vain attempt to keep them in check I added a guideline to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Terminology that in theory would prevent them from becoming like this. In practice, of course, sigh... :)
I did manage to get [[Category:Computer terminology]] deleted and its contents merged into [[Category:Computing]] back then, though, perhaps a good approach for the more egregious examples that remain.
