	This article was created from the prompt of Macbeth who asked me to show how i think categories should be ordered, due to the fact no rules have been made on the subject. As such, it's a work in progress, which can be seen in the incomplete article. It's proper to lay down the rules of how the categories should be ordered on an article, and if they should be ordered (i think they should, as it's better than chaos). All thoughts on how this should be done are welcome. --[[User:Jacob\|Jacob]] 22:13, 10 Jan 2007 (CST)		This article was created from the prompt of Macbeth who asked me to show how i think categories should be ordered, due to the fact no rules have been made on the subject.

			==NeoQuest categories==
			in my latest edit of this article, i've decided on a change that has been bugging me since the creation of named categories: the current categories of NeoQuest articles are misspelled. "Neoquest" is misspelled, and doesn't really mention if it's for 1 or 2. "Neoquest II" clears the ambiguity, but it's still misspelled. Just wanted to mention this as i have plans to eventually create the properly spelled categories, as categories cannot be renamed or moved like other articles, just created and deleted.

Jacob: started official topic on category talk

2007-01-10T13:25:18Z

started official topic on category talk

New page

==Plot characters?==
Taking the initiative, i decided to move the discussion that was occuring on [[User talk:Vahalla bound|Vahalla bound]]'s talk page here: As stated, i'm hesitant to using the "plot characters" category, as it seems to broad and not very helpful. I proposed two different ideas, which would slim down on what we are organizing.
#Label specific character categories, such as "Champions of Meridell Characters", which would include
#Make broad subject categories, such as "Champions of Meridell", which would include all articles which had something do with with the Champions of Meridell plot (characters, locations, shops, items, etc.).
Hoping to come to a conclusion with this, as i do believe users would like the idea of being able to connect all the information dealing with a specific plot easily. --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 07:25, 10 Jan 2007 (CST)
