==CategoriesWhat is a Category?==
Categories and subcategories are the backbone of a wiki's navigation (especially since the wiki search options aren't very intuitive). All [[Help:Article|article]]s, sub-categories and [[Help:Image|images]] should be slotted into at least one category, to enable other users to find it easily. Make sure to look at the [[Help:Structure|Category Structure]] of {{WikiTitle}} to decide how to categorize properly.
* Every page automatically displays the categories it is slotted into at the bottom of the page.
All categories work in the same way, and this includes categories located in other categories (sub categories). Category lists are automatically created in the exact same way as by the wiki script. Sub categories are displayed over the list of articles, and are used to organize individual pages into smaller, more focused groups. These can sometimes overlap or intertwine to some degree, but try to keep the structure as clean as possible. For instance, the [[:Category:Monsters|Monsters Category]] has subcategories for [[:Category:Act bosses|Act Bosses]] and [[:Category:Superuniques|SuperUniques]]. Furthermore, the Act Boss pages are all found within the SuperUniques category. Moving up the hierarchical tree, the monsters category is found within the [[:Category:Gameplay]].
In order to link directly to a category, add a ":" in front of "Category", like this: <nowiki>[[:Category:Help]]</nowiki>, to make it a link instead of adding the article to the category. Optional title is useful.
==Category Naming==
Categories are named similarly to other pages in the {{WikiTitle}}, where the first word is capitalised and any subsequent words are minors.
* Check our [[Help:Policy|title naming policies]] for further help with naming categories.
