No problem. For the record, it is ultimately necessary for our articles to be categorized, but it's not a big sin on your part to not have done so up front -- a new contributor obviously won't necessarily always know all the nooks and crannies of Wikipedia procedure, or what the right categories for an article even are. We have a whole maintenance project of experienced users who specifically devote their time to adding categories to uncategorized articles -- so you're certainly welcome to add categories yourself if you choose to, but you're also allowed to leave it in the categorization queue so that an experienced editor who's more familiar with our category system can look after that for you. The tag isn't meant to be a rap on your knuckles personally; it just puts the article into a maintenance queue so that somebody can fix it. Hope that helps. Bearcat (talk) 14:04, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
