People say lists are good because you can annotate them. What would be
nice would be the ability to annotate categories. Instead of only
being able to set the sort order, you could add some text to the
article that appeared on the category page itself using, for example,
[[category:people|Wikimedia board member|{{defaultsort}}]].
