Categories

Pages about similar topics may be organized into Categories as a way to keep them together in an accessible collection.

Adding a Page to a Category

A page may be added to a category in either visual editing mode or source editing mode.

Adding Categories In Visual Editing Mode

In visual editing mode, start by clicking on the hamburger button on the right side of the visual editing toolbar. Then, select Categories from the dropdown.

Next, in the Options window, type in the desired category in the Add a category text box.

🔍 If an appropriate category already exists, select it from the Matching categories results. If an appropriate category doesn’t exist, select the result under New category.

Adding Categories In Source Editing Mode

To add a page to a category in source editing mode, simply add the following text at the bottom of the text edit window:

[[Category:YourCategory]]

This text must be surrounded by two sets of brackets. Replace the placeholder text “YourCategory” with the desired category, such as “Locations,” “Artists,” “Wizard Wednesday,” "Help," etc.

🔍 If the added category does not exist, Wizzypedia will automatically create a new one.
