The problem is this:

Say, in a book with 5 stories, you have synopsis 1,2, and 5 filled out, but not 3 and 4. The only way to ensure that the category is added for 3 is to check if EVERY OTHER story is filled out - which, in the template, is something like a total of 35. Which means that for every "If synopsis 1 is filled out" where story 1 is filled out, you ALSO have to do "if synopsis 2-35 are filled out" to check if the other stories are filled out or not. And for every one where 1 AND 2 are filled out, you have to check AGAIN whether stories 3-35 are filled out. And the only result is either inefficiently adding the category for every unfilled out story or potentially, 35 infoboxes.

Counter-proposal: instead of having ONE "Synopsis Written" category, we create a synopsis written category for eeeeevery story. i.e. "Synopsis (1st Story) Written" or something...

But then, you would STILL need some method of tagging the other stories as written or unwritten, so... the problem would remain.

It would be fine if you didn't use the notice box, because multiple category-adds don't cause conflicts (it would be pretty inefficient, though).
