User blog:Blue Sky/Categories and Objects

Well, I've had a chat over a couple of issues recently and I thought I'd a) get general opinion on them and b) try and stop certain unhelpful things being done on this wiki with a lil blog post about it. :)

Categories: First is the issue of obscure/silly categories being created and added to. I'm not sure why people do it - weird humour? an attempt to get the category-adding badge? - but there are some we could definitely do without. Examples of these are "Prats" and "People who have epic capes". Without wanting to be rude to the makers of these, they serve no purpose. The point in category pages is to organise groups of common elements so people can find them easily. But since nobody is going to go searching for all the characters a certain user considers to be a 'prat', there's just no need for it and it just takes up space.

Point is, don't add categories unless they're serious and general, not so obscure that there's only two qualifying pages. And please do try not to make spelling/grammar mistakes in the title!

Object Pages:, I've been thinking about object pages on this wiki. I've noticed lots of pages springing up about very specific objects - Morgana's bracelet, Gwen's bracelet, Gwen's ring etc. and I'm considering combining them all into a page about significant/magical objects instead of having lots of very brief ones. However, it's not necessarily wrong to have individual pages for them all, so I'd like your opinions on what you think should happen :) Thanks~
