Uh, sure you want this?  I don't have a million, but...

1) Should we add a text field wherein the cataloguer can add a comment
if desired, such as "includes minute-by-minute breakdown of Shrieking
Shack scene."  This would aid the FAQers tremendously.

2) I noticed that most of the Inish Alley acronyms have been made
categories.  Should we remove all those acronyms that didn't live
beyond the post in which they were coined (comprising most of them)? 
For example, listies frequently used MAGIC DISHWASHER and LOLLIPOPS as
shorthand for their respective theories, but IMPISH LLAMA DRAPE and I
GOT YOUR PARALLELISM RIGHT HERE MISTER never caught on, clever though
they are.  Furthermore, "George" is by far the most-used (and most
personified) Snapetheory, but it's not an acronym.  

As the curator of Inish Alley and erstwhile participant in TBAY, I can
help mark which acronyms became useful to the list (and therefore to
the catalogue) and which did not.

3) Am I to understand that we are not to monkey with the categories as
of yet, i.e., we can neither create, edit, nor destroy?

That should be enough for now.
