Category Module and Taxonomy Wrapper When To Use

I've been setting up the category and category_menu modules on my site.. They are a little tricky to use but i'm committed to making them work for me, especially for content structuring.

I am now starting to add other contrib modules to my site. Lots of them work with the *generic* term categories. However, i i'm not sure if that really means they work with *taxonomy* module and NOT *category* module or if they can and or do mean the same thing.

Views - how do i make a simple node type module's fields available to views

i just installed the quotes module. it simply extends node as type "quotes" by adding an additonal field called "author" to the standard node.body and node.title.

question. if i wanted to amend the quote module so that it "exports" it's table/fields to views.. how easy is that to do and how would i do it?

if views has an api for this, it would seem fairly straightforward because quotes really only has one field to export..

thanks in advance

add a link to css file OR modify one from the theme or core

I want to modify the appearance of my 5.x install (I'm using the the garland theme in 5.x)

Is it better to add a link into some file so that it will point to my own css file?
(if so, which file would I add that line to)

OR

Is it better to just edit one of the css files from the theme (or one of the core css files)?
(if so, which is best to edit)

I'd like to have to do the least amount of re-modding each time I upgrade.

Thanks

How would a user delete their account?

This question has come from the users of one of my sites. How can someone delete their account?

As an admin, if I edit the users account there is a delete button. But if I go in as a regular user, and edit my own account, there is no delete button. Why?

robots.txt help needed

When I analyse google site crawl stats, I see that googlebot tries to vote. How do I block google from doing that? Here's a sample url:

http://www.example.com/some_article_url_formed_using_pathauto_module?q=v...

I don't want google going after anything with ?q=voting/flash/* in the url.

How do I specify that in robots.txt?

Thanks for reading
