In the continuing goal to slim the listing down of this category...it seems to need to think about something more than "heroes" and "villains" to make it smaller (veterans of the NeoDex know what I mean). It seems we may need to take it a step further: Cut the characaters category from articles should they have any Neopet subcategory connected to them. Of course, if that's done, almost no articles (none at all?) will be connected to this category. Still, it needs to be cut down, so... *shrugs* what does everyone else think? --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 14:21, 15 Oct 2007 (UTC) | In the continuing goal to slim the listing down of this category...it seems to need to think about something more than "heroes" and "villains" to make it smaller (veterans of the NeoDex know what I mean).

:What I was thinking is to remove this category from the articles that have any character subcategories (i.e. Battledome Opponents, Faeries, Heroes, Villains, Petpet Characters). That might slim down the amount of articles but still have articles remaining. If the list is still too large maybe more subcategories are in order (e.g. Altador Cup, Better Than You, a new ''Game Characters'' category). --[[User:Dizzy|Dizzy]] 16:18, 15 Oct 2007 (UTC) | :What I was thinking is to remove this category from the articles that have any character subcategories (i.e. Battledome Opponents, Faeries, Heroes, Villains, Petpet Characters).

::I would have to say no to "game characters", when just saying "characters" could work just as well. Altador Cup or Better Than You wouldn't work, due to the fact one is a plot and the other a gaming notice, when we are supposed to be focusing on character specific categories. Same goes for the "Battledome Opponents" category. Neopet subcategories still seem like tha most likely path. --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 02:26, 16 Oct 2007 (UTC) | |||

Character Categories
When you are adding categories to a characters aritcle, be sure to cancel out the Category:Characters category if they are a heroes or villains (or if they are both, which does happen). After that, add any other category that is applicable, such as Category:Chias, Category:Battledome Opponents, Category:Defenders of Neopia Opponents, etc. --Jacob 17:49, 10 Jul 2006 (CDT)
Slimming down the list
In the continuing goal to slim the listing down of this category...it seems to need to think about something more than "heroes" and "villains" to make it smaller (veterans of the NeoDex know what I mean). It seems we may need to take it a step further: Cut the characaters category from articles should they have any Neopet subcategory connected to them. Of course, if that's done, almost no articles (none at all?) will be connected to this category. Still, it needs to be cut down, so... *shrugs* what does everyone else think? --Jacob 14:21, 15 Oct 2007 (UTC)

- I would have to say no to "game characters", when just saying "characters" could work just as well. Altador Cup or Better Than You wouldn't work, due to the fact one is a plot and the other a gaming notice, when we are supposed to be focusing on character specific categories. Same goes for the "Battledome Opponents" category. Neopet subcategories still seem like tha most likely path. --Jacob 02:26, 16 Oct 2007 (UTC)
