If you're creating a new page, it helps to add a category to the page. This makes it possible to easily find related pages, and ensures that each page properly fits into the structure of the wiki.

Here's a list of the most important categories. If you're making a new page, consider if it should be added to one of these—and if not, that's fine, feel free to make new ones too where that seems sensible. Please add the category here if you do. Ask around on our Discord server if you're not sure.

By Wikipedia style convention, our categories are plural.

If a page is uncategorized, it will show up on the Uncategorized Pages list.
