Categories
Hello, please read over our categories policy page. Specifically, avoid adding redundant categories (broader categories that other, more specific categories already on the page are already categorised under, like Category:Mammals when Category:Rabbits is already there), and make sure you add new categories in the correct order: type categories first, sorted by importance (e.g. Category:Koopas, Category:Fish); then game categories, sorted alphabetically (e.g. Category:New Super Mario Bros. enemies, Category:Super Mario Bros. enemies). 21:52, September 3, 2021 (EDT)

Also, please avoid adding categories that are only remotely related to the subject (for example, minigames and moves are not locations or objects and don't get categories like "Race courses" and "Stars"). 22:52, September 3, 2021 (EDT)

Warning
20:57, September 9, 2021 (EDT)

Thank you for the warning. I have been thoroughly discouraged and will no longer make any attempt to meaningfully contribute to the Mario Wiki in any way, shape, or form.


 * This is not to stop you from editing entirely. You were reminded twice already for this yet you didn't follow it, so a warning was necessary. You just need to follow Categories and order the categories properly and not add unnecessary ones as I've explained. 21:18, September 9, 2021 (EDT)

Not to further discourage you, but you're still putting these categories under the game categories. 12:54, September 10, 2021 (EDT)

I feel as if the more recent warnings I'm receiving are vague and nonconstructive. I will admit my faults, some of my earlier edits were more unstructured and downright incorrect, and I am working my hardest to restructure what actually qualifies as what. I am trying to regress to almost robotic decisions (Jungle=Jungles, Beach=Beaches, etc.), and I am still having trouble finding out just exactly what is and isn't what. But I sometimes find it difficult to find just what I did wrong when I get no specific incidents on what was incorrect (besides the first warning, of course). Could you inform me exactly what I did wrong and what was wrong about it, so that I can improve on my future categorization? Even just a couple of examples that reflect the problem with my editing would be appreciated.

I will also stop editing until further clarification, for your sake and mine.
 * All you need to do is put the categories you add above any categories that have game titles in them, and have those sorted alphabetically. You should take a look at the corrections Mario jc made to your edits to see what I mean. 13:55, September 10, 2021 (EDT)
 * So, what you're saying is, for example, if a page says "list of (X) levels" or something along those lines, I should place any new categorization above those categories? Sorry if I'm taking up a lot of time, but I'm on my final warning here in which any form of editing is like walking in a minefield.
 * Basically any general categories are placed above game-specific categories. So if you were trying to categorize, say, a grassland level in New Super Mario Bros. U, you would want to put Category:Grasslands above Category:New Super Mario Bros. U levels. -- 14:01, September 10, 2021 (EDT)
