MarioWiki:Categories
Overview
Placement on articles
The following points may be used as a summary as to which categories an article should use. Please refer to the subsequent sections of the policy for further reading.
- All game articles should receive Category:Games.
- When placing a game category on its game article, use an asterisk.
- Asterisks are also used for pages which aren't strictly writing on a specific in-game subject, but rather used as a point of reference for that game. For example: list of quotes, galleries, staff credits, pre-release and unused content, and glitches.
- When game categories are split into specific categories (such as "Super Paper Mario Characters"), relevant articles should then receive this specific category instead of the game category.
- If an article describing an in-game subject does not fit into a more specific category, then it just receives the overall game category.
- If a specific category can be split further (for example: "Super Paper Mario Characters" extends to "Super Paper Mario Bosses"), only use the most specific category.
- Articles should only use the following categories when a more specific one cannot be applied:
Rainbow Tap-Tap
Spike creature
