category.php and taxonomy.php are not required. The WordPress template<br>
hierarchy is designed so that if specialized templates like those are<br>
not present, the index.php file will be used -- if you review the<br>
Theme Review guidelines, you'll find the information about exactly<br>
which templates are required there.<br>
<br>
However, both Tags and Categories MUST be displayed with the post<br>
they're associated with; this information is included in the Theme<br>
Unit Test documentation.<br>
