Yes they are, I searched for them later and fyi, the page i renamed was
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Marketing/JohnBotscharow
to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Marketing/Agenda

Feel free to check the page diff for more information.

Your wiki page was not the only one I edited for the category cleanup.
You can check the "recent pages" where i have edited a number of
pages. Personal wikipages belong to the "Homepage" category. I ran out
of time hence left the cleanup for another time.

Having pages under the correct category matters to visitors/users who
do a search for a term on the wiki, only to be left with pages which
does not provide the information they are looking for. I doubt if the
goal of the wiki is to have folks going in circles looking for
information.

Umm... there is obviously some misunderstanding. The content of your
personal pages were not edited by me. You can check that for yourself
by doing a "diff" which will give you the difference between any
number of entries. FWIW, changing categories is not the same as
changing content.

There was never any problem :) but just in case you already know this
:: that is the objective of a wiki - "freedom" -- to edit, change,
add, remove content by any registered user.
