Hello there. I recently stumbled across this wiki while digging through some old contributions, clicked a few links to other pages and then soared through wikia only to find this roleplaying wiki devoted to probably my favorite kind of fantasy. I plan on RPing here soon, and make a bunch of character articles and such.

So, I notice that there is a lack of categories here on the wiki. Now, I'm no boss around here or something, but I was wondering if it might be better to categorize these pages so that people can more easily find what they are exactly looking for.

For example, the page [http://middle-earth-roleplay.wikia.com/wiki/Hutain_lore. Hutain Lore] could have the category [(random canon name that the author chose)]. A canon is then essentially a category on its own, and every character page, weapons page, armor page that is created that appears in the RP of Hutain Lore (if it has one) can have the same [(random canon name that the author chose)] so that people can easily distinguish what characters and other stuff belong to what canon. The page Hutain Lore itself could have another category titled [Timelines].

If this example isn't clear enough, here's another one.

The page Warlords RP lore could have the category [Warlords] (=possible canon name up to the author to decide). On the page itself I see different sections such as History, '''Factions, Timeline, Wars/Battles. '''

If the History (of Warlords RP lore) would have an article on its own, it could belong to the category [Warlords] and [Lore]. This would mean that it is classified as both Lore and is also still associated with Warlords.

There are multiple Factions present in Warlords RP lore. Instead of having a list of factions in one page, each faction could have their own page. For example, the first faction I read about were ''the Daleks. ''

the Daleks could have its own page, and have the categories [Warlords] and [Factions], classyfing it as both a faction and property of Warlords.

I will answer any question I can if my explanation wasn't clear enough. I know this wiki only has 32 pages at the moment, but if we don't start now and later there'll be 100s of pages cluttering the mainspace without any clear categories and confusion can arise.
