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, as well as any applicable subcatgories under the asterisk (*) within that category, such as a game's system and genre.
• When placing a game category (such as Category:Super Paper Mario) on the actual game article, use an asterisk.
• When game categories are split into subject-specific categories (such as Category: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 subject category, then it should use the overall game category.
  • If a subject-specific category can be split further (for example: "Super Paper Mario Characters" extends to the Super Paper Mario Bosses subcategory), use only the most specific category.

Articles should use these categories only when a more specific one cannot be applied instead:

Allies Bosses Characters Enemies Events Items Levels

Lists Minigames Missions Objects Places Species Vehicles

For any pages branching from Category:Games, remember they should always use the most specific and focused categories available. For example: even though Dr. Mario 64 is a "Mario" installment, it should receive the more specific Category:Dr. Mario Series, not Category:Mario Games.

These types of pages should include the indicated category:

• Image gallery pages should use Category:Galleries
• Glitch pages should use Category:Glitches
• Pages showing a list of media files should use Category:Media
• Pages which list all pre-release and unused content of a game should use Category:Pre-release and unused content
• Quotes pages should use Category:Quotes
• Pages listing staff development and production teams should use Category:Staff
• Any profile and statistics pages should use a pipelink for the name of that character. For example, the "List of Bowser profiles and statistics" page should use [[Category:Profiles and statistics|Bowser]] so the page isn't listed as beginning with "L", instead showing up under "B".
  Note: The same pipelink format is used for other pages where the title begins with "List of", such as item locations, references and most other lists.

Asterisks

4. Asterisks within an overall game category 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 a subject of that game. This covers any game-focused pages within Category:Lists (including any subpages of that category), as well as all game galleries.
