I think that is faulty logic, to give an extreme but possible example, if we have 10000 scripts stored in this wiki is it likely that categorization will still help ? It we have 10,000 scripts, no, it won't. As I said before, if the category has too many members, people wouldn't read them all to pick the one they want.

The same could be true if there were 1,000 categories. People wouldn't read a list of 1,000 categories to pick the one that might apply to what they want, hoping nothing had been mis-categorized.
