Prepare the category namespace at ATW as a testing namespace

 * Create all categories at Special:WantedCategories
 * Append to every category page the following:" "

 Rationale : Heretofore, when anyone wants to test a bot at ATW, we’ve only permitted testing in the test namespace (i.e., ). However, if we require all bot testers to make their bots -compliant, and we place on every necessary category page, then we will have effectively protected all those categories. This will permit bot testers to test their bots in the Category namespace, if they so desire, without damaging those categories that ATW needs in order to operate. — Spike  Toronto  18:37, July 12, 2013 (UTC)
