- Why is 'education' not listed on the Category:Wiki Topic page?
We have several thousand categories at WikiIndex. Someone decided that was too many to list on one page. So that person decided to organize all categories as a hierarchy, and list only the "root categories" at Category:Wiki Topic. Category:Education is a sub-category of Category:Learning, which is a sub-category of Category:Knowledge, which is one of the root categories listed at Category:Wiki Topic. Is there a better way to handle our thousands of categories? If you want a list of *all* categories, click on the word "Categories" at the bottom of the page and then click "next" a few dozen times. --DavidCary 15:43, 4 August 2009 (EDT)

- Where are your administrative abuse/administrator guidelines pages?
- How much original research can I use?
- WikiIndex is not the same as Wikipedia. Original research is allowed. Having a point of view is allowed. Although in practice most of the articles do not provide reviews or personal experience of the indexed site, there is no rule saying that you can't do so. I think it safe to say that not every editor here particularly likes this, but it generally only causes conflicts for wikis with a strong point of view. So feel free to express your opinion and tell of your experience. Just be aware that someone else may come along and change it, erase it, or contradict it.
- How long can articles be?
- Generally no longer than 12,000 characters seems to be the norm.
