need to put the tag (there are I think 4k cats tagged as container, and I would estimate probably 30-40k that are actually container cats, or more...) - it's really just if people are confused or putting things into those cats that you should consider the container cat tag probably. Not sure about your what-links-here question, perhaps ask at village pump? OTOH, I bet there aren't more than 1000 true non-diffusing cats, but again, just a wild guesstimate. --

No - some/most categories are just regular old diffusing ones, in which case, no template is needed. A very few categories are non-diffusing, which is where this template comes in handy. Finally, container categories are numerous, but in some cases it's so obvious they are containers that we don't

for that purpose, showing the reverse relationship in the template text (which of the subcategory is the one that the non-diffusing relationship exists). But as Obiwankenobi says, I've rarely seen a parent category that is entirely non-diffusing for all its subcategories.
253:– The common wording used on Knowledge (XXG) to describe categories that may be in both parent and child is "non-diffusing", not "distinguished", categories. This template should be updated to reflect this terminology and reflect the contents of the supporting guideline. 435:
All included is different - all included basically means - every single one of my subcategories is non-diffusing. We also have cases where some subcategories ARE diffusing, while others are NOT - e.g.

do; the same people are also philosophers in a non-logician way. I will propose some changes when this is done (I'm getting involved in lots of discussions at the moment!).
393:– I understood that non-diffusing subcategories are those which are not diffused, i.e. where all members of its member-categories are categorised additionally. E.g. the 304:; renaming the template makes sense to me. I don't understand why some of the examples given at the guideline page should be non-diffusing, but that's another matter. – 114:
This is a distinguished subcategory of Category:X. It includes actors that can also be found in the parent category, or in diffusing subcategories of the parent.

Any reason why this template doesn't refer to "non-diffusing" categories rather than the uncommon "distinguished" phrasing? I propose we move the template to

Currently, it says all articles can be found in the parent. This isn't the case, however, where the parent also has diffusing subcategories.

I agree this is another area that needs explaining better. I would argue that non-diffusion should occur where the subject is
