Category removal - explanation[edit]

I have removed this article from the category Category:Sri Lankan people by occupation, as that is a container category and so it should not contain individual articles. Additionally the article was already in its sub-categories Category:Sri Lankan educators and Category:Sri Lankan academics which are more appropriate categories for it in any case.
