Help:Categories and semantic fields

List of Categories that could have subcategories and Pete's thoughts and 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 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
