In any case, this is resulting in many editors going through many articles repeated to change the categorization. My watchlist is filled with long repeated edits in multiple waves.
I really don't see anything wrong with that. Some people just act a bit too quickly, and add articles to too broad categories. (I did that too at first.) But it gives people something to work with, and splitting them up into smaller categories is less work than creating smaller categories from scratch.
This is the Wiki process. Someone makes a sub-optimal contribution and others improve on it. Yes, sometimes it's a bit of work to clean up after *really* sub-optimal contributions, but a good end-result will eventually precipitate out. C'est la vie-kie.
