There's great value in these directories, no doubt.

I'll not likely do much compiling for ~the_stacker_muse, since I think my energy is better spent (though I don't reckon I've done a very good job of it yet) trying to cultivate the creative side of literature community here.

I wouldnt say I am anti-categorization, but definitely averse to it sometimes.

...I like it where people self-categorize their works especially where it comes to artistic input, but others here have disagreed with me on that, and I see the reasons why -- I did maintain that it is important to acknowledge form if you want to be taken seriously (I.e. people don't just splatter paint on a canvas and get applauded for being the next Jackson Pollock.)
