Categorization

There is currently a lot of work to be done in the project categorization department. There are many obsolete categories, some that are duplicated, others not in proper hierarchy, and some that have yet to be created. Early on this team will try to "clean up" the category mess and eventually the project will be in place to give help to those who have category questions and more importantly, they will help to set up the new categories that will be created when new military units are entered into the sticker template.
