| {{Policy}}The central goal of the {{Nihongo|category system}} is to provide navigational links to all {{SITENAME}} pages in a hierarchy of categories which readers, knowing essential characteristics of a topic, can browse and quickly find sets of pages on topics that are defined by those characteristics.
| | Google |
| ==Creation==
| |
| Categories should be created when they can encompass a significant number of relevant articles. If someone wishes to contest the relevance of a newly created category, they can do so on its talk page.
| |
| ==Naming conventions==
| |
| *Standard article naming conventions apply (see [[Project:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]); in particular, do not capitalize regular nouns except when they come at the beginning of the title.
| |
| *Names of topic categories should be singular, normally corresponding to the name of an article. Examples: "Rhythm Rally", "Forthington".
| |
| *Names of set categories should be plural. Example: "Characters".
| |
| ==Categorizing pages==
| |
| Each categorized page should be placed in all categories to which it logically belongs. This means that if a page belongs to a subcategory of C (or a subcategory of a subcategory of C, and so on), then it should also be placed into C ''if and only if'' C would also logically and directly apply to the page. For example:
| |
| *[[Built to Scale (DS)|Built to Scale]] is placed in [[:Category:Rhythm Games]].
| |
| *[[Munchy Monk|Munchy Monk]] would not be placed in [[:Category:Characters]].
| |
| Please note that the infoboxes, navboxes, etc already provide most of the relevant categories as is.
