This is the text of the Template:CategoryDiscussions. It is intended to connect the various discussions about categories here on WikiIndex that are taking place (or have previously taken place) on various pages. Please also see WikiIndex:How do categories work, and how to use our {{Tag}} template. If you find a discussion on categories which does not display this message box, please add this template by copying the following {{CategoryDiscussions}} , and pasting at the bottom of the edit box on the required talk page, and then go edit this template to include it, and summarise the discussion you found. The following discussions have taken, or are taking place:
- WikiIndex:How do categories work — tries to explain to new editors how our category system works. (Or at least, how we hope it will someday work, once we finish the tasks in the below WikiProjects).
- WikiProject:Categories and Tags — lists some category-related projects we have been working on, and how we use our {{Tag}} template (which 'wikilinks', and auto-includes into its linked category); please feel free to help.
- Category talk:Browse — the talk page of the de facto 'root' (or top tier) category; a logical place for general category discussions to occur. Mentions language stuff; also questions whether 'category: Browse' should even be a category.
- language issues:
- general structure debates:
- dealing with geography:
- Category talk:Places — the former fundamental 'location cat'; previously suggested for depreciation, and proposed as being edited out of existence; now used for non-geographical locations.
- Category talk:Wiki Location — the new location root category; discussion general geography schemes here.
- Category talk:Cities — one scheme: a category just for 'city wikis' . . .; see also: Regiowikis.
- Category talk:Earth — how to structure a 'tree of locations'; discussion at the root of the tree.
- specific categories:
