I don't think we need this category, or at minimum it shouldn't be a default. Not all devices can be disassembled (ie, Sound Card) and not all of them require any special knowledge to get in(most desktop computers are just two screws to remove a side panel). So missing this information isn't going to be an issue a lot of the time, at least in older devices. I could see a case for having this be an opt-in category for devices that are known to have difficulties with opening (like anything glued together). But these would be the exception and pages should be manually marked to need them after creation if we are going to have it. I'm going to remove this category from the main preload template and look through the devices currently in it and remove any that don't appear to explicitly need more information on how to get into them. --AkBKukU (talk) 14:41, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
