Excessive categorization?

I see she is added to :Category:Critics of Mormonism, :Category:Critics of Scientology,

:Category:Critics of Jehovah's Witnesses, :Category:Critics of the Unification Church,

:Category:Critics of Sōka Gakkai, :Category:Critics of Sathya Sai Baba,

:Category:Critics of the Family International in addition to :Category:Anti-cult organizations and individuals. I can see why the last category is justified based on her proposed legislation, but did she personally criticize at significant length the other organizations individually and specifically? If so, supporting text should be added to the article. If not, the categories should be removed. Tijfo098 (talk) 19:50, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

: Hi Tijfo098! I added the categories "Critics of XXX" because Picard, as president of the anti-cult association UNADFI, regularly expresses strong concerns on what she considers cults. For exemple, Picard was sometimes judicially opposed to religious movements (e.g. in 2008, she was sued by Jehovah's Witnesses on the ground of libel [http://www.unadfi.org/communique-de-presse,775.html], and publicly made critical statements in press articles or debates (the Church of Scientology [http://www.lemonde.fr/societe/article/2012/02/02/une-condamnation-historique-contre-l-eglise-de-scientologie_1637845_3224.html], the Mormon church [http://www.francetvinfo.fr/la-construction-du-premier-temple-mormon-en-france-n-a-pas-que-des-adeptes_53751.html], Jehovah's Witnesses [http://www.unadfi.org/la-dette-fiscale-des-temoins-de.html][http://ns20965.ovh.net/~godf/index.php/media/video/liens/video/nom/Vid%C3%A9os/id/509]), or in her book [http://www.amazon.fr/Sectes-d%C3%A9mocratie-mondialisation-Anne-Fournier/dp/2130525695 Sectes, démocratie et mondialisation]. --Europe22 (talk) 15:35, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

:: Thanks for the info. The article could definitely be expanded based on some of those sources. Tijfo098 (talk) 20:00, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
