Suggest to remove the "sub diffusing" banner edit

According to the guidelines a "sub diffusing" category is one where members of the category are also found in the parent category.

The relevant guidelines say:

"Not all subcategories serve the "diffusion" function described above; some are simply subsets which have some special characteristic of interest, such as Best Actor Academy Award winners as a subcategory of Film actors. They provide an exception to the general rule that pages are not placed in both a category and its subcategory: there is no need to take pages out of the parent category purely because of their membership of a non-diffusing subcategory."

Accordingly, I agree with the interpretation of these guidelines that: women architects in Japan should not be removed from the category "architects in Japan". It is also very useful for researchers to have a sub-category that identifies women architects.
