Why?
[edit]Why are you adding the category Category:Africa wiki challenge 2024 to File:Beni-Suef University main bldg.jpg? The category description says "A category created for the Africa Wiki Challenge 2024 upload session", and this photo was uploaded in 2009, which means it does not belong in this category. Please do not add it again. —holly {chat} 16:08, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
