Yeah, I totally appreciate the new #data-reporting category and the cleanup work you did there! I just think that the software shouldn’t break its own links by default (or require even more meta-cleanup from moderators).

Amusingly, I’m simultaneously having an internal discussion about the blurry and biased line between a #Contribute > Bug and a #Contribute > Feature and how users see the line differently from developers… and I must admit I submitted this as a “bug” with a grin, knowing it’s a perfect example of a missing feature that pretty much looks like a bug… so sorry for making you do that extra re-categorization I knew would end up happening, hah!
