I think on Wikipedia, instead of putting the list in the category page, they would have made an article "List of ", such as what I suggested for "Rips referencing YouTubers" and put only a link to the list in the category page.

E.g. someone adds this category to a rip, then one can go to the category page and compare the list with the automatically generated list of pages containing the category. That's why I made the tables sortable, too – I can easily sort the table alphabetically and compare it with the autogenerated list. If the list was on some other page, it would require loading 2 pages and cross-comparing them, which is more complicated. Another reason is that if the list isn't very long (e.g. "Rips featuring Bangarang", which is currently 12 rips) making a new page for the list seems too superfluous and spammy. But I'm open to discussion, of course. So should we put some lists into separate "List" pages? Or should we make restrictions, like only very long lists deserve "List" pages? What do you think?
