 * I mean admin validation
    for example , when u add a new category , it doesn’t
   check if the category already exist or not , for example u already have a category
   called “Cars” if u try to add “cars” , it will be added which not make scenes,
   i need first to check

 * If you want to accept posts from your users and need to validate their posts 
   then you can use plugins like [Frontend Publishing](https://wordpress.org/plugins/front-end-publishing/).
   With this plugin you can create a form on the front-end for accepting content.
   Users will not be able to crate categories and you will be able to check things
   like word count, number of tags etc.
