List of Categories that could have subcategories and Pete's thoughts on the categories in general:
- Bases and Installations - This should not have any subcategories, instead it's articles should be tagged by factions and type
- Behind the scenes (real life) - This should have the following subcategories
- Games
- Novels
- Other products
- Interviews
- Production personnel (bios of people who made the WC products)
- Books - Ok, I guess the LaFong thing does deserves it's own subcategory, but books should itself be a subcategory for Media
- Characters - This should not have any subcategories, instead it's articles should be tagged by races
- Fictional Characters - should be a category on it's own, not a subcategory of Characters
- Equipement - Make subcategories as needed.
- Factions - This one is a mess, pointing to sub-sub-sub-sub-categories. Scrap all that, and make subcategories for subfactions as needed, but only if the subcategory page contains information. For example, make the Terran Confederation article a Category page with the actual article in the top and the list of subfactions as subcategories at the bottom (i.e. the Belisarius Group).
- Fleet Organization - I guess we can leave that one be
- Kilrathi society and culture - Why not make this a subcategory list within the Kilrathi "Race" article ?
- Languages - This category should contain actual languages (+"slang") category-articles, which could then use any subcategory needed ("words", "Character sets", etc)
- Locations - What exactly is that ??? It only contains a subcategory for places within the Tiger's Claw... this should simply be put into the Tiger's Claw article instead ???
- Media
- Books should be ported here
- Magazines should be ported here
- Holovids should be ported here
- Periodicals should be ported here
- Infobursts, perhaps ???
- News bulletin - for those bulletin board news and Priv2 things
- Missions - It's fine the way it is now - the misions listed in there can't be from two different WC Products so using semantic tags here would be pointless.
- Ships - Another messy one. Scrap all the current subcategories. The ships aricles should be tagged for faction(s), WC Product(s) they appear in, manufacturer(s), etc.
- Fighters
- Capital ships
- Non-combatant
- Weapons
- Guns
- Missiles
- Others
On semantic tags and queries
