What part of not needed are you having difficulties understanding? When an admin deletes something, and the edit history says Housekeeping or Not needed, those are the reasons they aren't needed. Do you even take a minute to look at things from the perspective of the admin(s) who delete these categories and pages? What possible reasons can you come up with as to why an admin would do such a thing?

Here's what I can come up off the top of my head: 1) Avoids duplication of categories, as has recently been done; 2) Not very many pages would fit into a category, thus such a category loses its worthiness and purpose; 3) Pages overly cluttered with categories, remember this is an encyclopedia not a data organization website; 4) Re-creates page an admin has already deemed unnecessary, why does passage of time make it any more necessary now? And this in light of it being a rule that you do not revert an admin edit? 5) Are these categories here to help the wiki, or are they here just to make edits? In other words, is this something you're doing to actually help the wiki in some way that it isn't already or is this just to be making edits? An edit with no real need or purpose is something not needed and therefore deleted. And that's just 5 to start off with. If you've made it even this far, would YOU make the categories?

And why do you feel so self-entitled as to deserve your categories when they aren't needed, an admin believes they aren't needed, and they've been deleted not only this time but previously as well? Why do you feel whining about it on a talk page is going to help? You asked for a reason. You were given a reason. This is no excuse to talk back to the admins. If you wanted to have a public discussion then explain to me why you feel it is acceptable to come out guns blazing when you ask for an answer and then get it? Specifically this - "Admin can freely delete a page just because he doesn't like it, even though it doesn't violate any rules?". Read rule #1: "No reverting an administrator's edit. If you wish to discuss an admin's edit, you may take it to a talk page for civil discussion. However if the admin turns out correct, then the edit stands" The page in question DID violate the rules - thats why it was once again deleted!
