Board Thread:Wiki Discussion/@comment-1177107-20150421211648

I apologize for my recent edits to categories. It was nothing more than a rash response to the Site maintenance database reports (particularly the Special:Uncategorizedcategories, Special:Uncategorizedpages, and Special:Wantedcategories reports). Honestly, it's a compulsion I have about needing to see a wikis structural organization in order to make more effective edits.

I can understand why discussions are required before making changes to categories. If any of my edits are unacceptable, please let me know and I'll be more than happy to go through and undo anything. I don't want to cause any extra work for anybody.

Below is an explanation of the changes I made.

Because the category is the "root" category, I removed Browse as being a category for the following pages (all of which retained their directory categories):
 * Category:Browse (was looping to itself)
 * Category:Bosses
 * Category:Concept Art
 * Category:Dark Souls
 * Category:Screenshots
 * Category:Shields
 * Category:Weapons


 * Category:Armor (moved this to Category:Items)
 * Category:Classes (moved this to Category:Gameplay)
 * Category:Covenants (moved this to Category:Gameplay)
 * Category:Gameplay Mechanics (moved this to Category:Gameplay)
 * Category:Magic (moved this to Category:Gameplay)
 * Category:Manual of Style (moved this to Category:Organization)
 * Category:Starting Gifts (moved this to Category:Items)

I created a Content page for articles regarding the subject of the wiki. I then moved the following categories, which were all in Browse, to Content:
 * Category:Characters
 * Category:DLC
 * Category:Enemies
 * Category:Gameplay
 * Category:Items
 * Category:Locations
 * Category:Removed Content
 * Category:Storyline

Regarding the Special:Uncategorizedcategories report:
 * Added Category:Dark Souls II: Greatshield Images to Category:Dark Souls II: Weapon Images
 * Added Category:Dark Souls II: Stats to Category:Stats
 * Added Category:Hidden categories to Category:Site maintenance
 * Added Category:News to Category:Browse
 * Added Category:Reapers to Category:Weapons
 * Added Category:Redirect to Category:Browse
 * Added Category:Videos to Category:Browse

I fixed errors in Special:DoubleRedirects
