Help:Categories

Categories are among the most important things to use on the wiki. They help sort out all the shit that we write in here into orderly lists. A category is merely an index of related pages. For example, this page is by its nature serious; then again, so is the page on Mafia. By virtue of them both being serious articles, they are lumped together in the "serious" category.

Likewise, silly articles like Inportb-tan and Little girls are lumped into the "loldongs" category.

Subcategories
However, while categories are useful for general categorization, they can't be very specific; two articles may be serious, but one of them may be about something completely different. Thus, subcategories are used in order to further specify and categorize pages into related pages. Subcategories are useful for specialization, but they will never be as large as the category they belong to.

Subcategories act like normal categories. A subcategory page is even labeled like a category, with the "category:" namespace. However, to make a category a subcategory, simply put the one category into a larger one. For example, put on the bottom of  and  is now a subcategory of. To add articles to the subcategory, just add to the bottom of a page.

When adding an article to a subcategory, one should also put the page into the larger category it is a part of.
