[Labs-l] Separating "content" categorizes from organizational categories

[Guilherme Gonçalves]

I think most categories you'd call organizational (or maintenance)
categories will be subcategories of [[Category:Hidden categories]], so you
can query for that. There might be a more precise way to do it, but that's
how I've been distinguishing the two.
