An unnecesarry category is one that is redundant or which fails to accurately classify said page(s).

Granted I give that definition with idea that you understand the logical limit to the need for a category, that is to say, if you decided to create categories classifying transformation items by their major color, or something similar to that, and I will be fighting the urge to cuss you something fierce, if you catch my meaning.

Also yes, I do want this category, but you seem to forget a point from my blog. I am an admin, I'm one of the few people on the wiki who should be making new categories. However, if you made a category, and it wasn't redundant and accurate described the subjects of several pages, then guess what, we would complain or do anything to stop you from using that category.

The point of my blog is this, only admins should be regularly creating categories, but if a user creates a proper category, we are not going to stop them.

I created this blog because a user, created a 'Godzilla' category and added it to several pages that did not qualify for it. My only guess was that he added it to those pages, because the Kaiju had a somewhat passing similarity to Big G, and to the Godzilla page.

We already have Godzilla Kaiju, and unlike other situations, we do not have anything more than just Kaiju on this wiki, so that category served no real function and was on pages that didn't require it.

You do not have to like McGuffin, but it's not doing anything that was already done, and it does classify a good portion of pages. It is also not being stupid (a bit tongue and cheek if you stretch it but not stupid).
