My apologies, I didn't actually know that was the case, since I'd only added categories in the quick way from the page.

The only other defense of dropping the "The" naming convention is  because it would look messy in the categories. For instance (with random page titles):

B

Bombay

The Book

The Bourgeois

Buffoon

The Bomber

It doesn't specifically mention that problem on the Getting Started page, though, so whoever wrote it may have just not been aware that articles can be categorized by a name different than their title. Perhaps a rule change is in order?
