Puffles Wiki:Policy/Categorization

In order to organize all the pages on the wiki, we have implemented a categorization system. This allows for pages to be sorted and accessed by category.

Category Trees
A category tree system exists to connect categories and allow you to navigate the categorization system. At the top is the general Browse category. Three main categories branch off from the uppermost category which branch off into generalized categories which contain subcategories at the very bottom. Such an example can be seen here.

Creating New Categories and Modifying the Structure
For no reason should a new category be created or a modification of the structure occur unless planned by the administration. If this happens, the category will be deleted. In the case of a structural change, the original structure will be restored. If you have a suggestion for a new category or change, please contact an administrator. The creation of unnecessary categories opposes the purpose of the categorization system as too many unneeded categories will result in difficulty navigating the system.
