Introduction
VS Battles Wiki utilizes a system of categories to organize pages based on a number of different criteria and properties, allowing our users to properly navigate through our many characters. However, superfluous categories are often added, whether they be redundant or simply unnecessary.
To limit these repeat categories, please remember to;
- Use title case for category names, eg; Site Administration instead of Site administration or site administration
- Use the plural forms of nouns, eg; Humans instead of Human and Sword Users instead of Sword User
- Use things like Sword Users rather than Swordsmen or Fire Users rather than Pyromancers
Remember that not all powers or bits of equipment necessitate a category; if you're unsure, check if there already is one for the power or tool in question. Some are just a bit too niche to be worth properly indexing.
Category Page Formatting
Categories themselves should have simple and concise descriptions, typically straightforward ones. For things like verse or company categories, it typically works just to list the names of the verse or company and simple facts (e.g. the year of their founding). It also helps to link back to, if possible, our page for the verse or company.
For example:
- Verses owned, published or created by Nintendo Co., Ltd.
Categorizing Categories
Our categories themselves have categories to assist in navigation. Remember to give new ability categories the "Characters by Power" category, new weapon categories the "Characters by Weapon" category, and so on. You can see more of these categories here.
