Forum:How to add categories to categorytree?

Hi I'm new to editing the wiki,

I'm trying to add buildings to this page: http://crimecity.wikia.com/wiki/Buildings

Whn I try editing, I seect "edit the source" but I can't add any building...

Can you please direct me to an user guide or help me do that ?

Thanks,

Flo


 * Buildings != Category:Buildings != Special:CategoryTree/Buildings. That page is a normal page acting as a category. (Technically, it can be done, but it's redundant.) Also, I think Category Tree only works if the category page is actually created. The page itself at Category:Buildings does not exist. Rappy 04:45, June 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, you'll need to categorize all categories. E.g. if there was a "Category:Buildings in North America," it would go into "Category:Buildings," that would be in yet another one and so on. 11:31, June 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi Rappy,
 * Thanks for the quick answer, I didnt know about those differences, I'm not sure if all those pages are actually useful.


 * Sorry but I don't understand exactly what you are saying.
 * Basically, I'd like to add a new building under another letter, any letter will do.
 * So far, I am not able to find out how to do it.
 * At the moment, when I look at http://crimecity.wikia.com/wiki/Buildings I can see "Barbershop" underneath the letter "B", even if the page "Category:Buildings" does not exist.


 * So basically what you are saying is that the best is to add a page for each building in "Category:Buildings", right ?
 * Btw do you know how to remove a category that has been accidentally created?


 * Thanks,

 * - what this means is that all pages listed in category 'B' will show up. If you look at Barbershop, it is indeed in Category:B. I am sure that's not what you want. Barbershop should be in Category:Buildings instead. You do not want to use the categorytree for what you are trying to do. If you look at Category:B (linked above), you will see that Barbershop does show up under the 'B'.


 * What you need to do is add all buildings to Category:Buildings and edit that category to show what you have at the top of Buildings. I will edit a few pages and place them in Category:Buildings so when you check out the category, you will see a few listed there. Rappy 19:17, June 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * I have moved Gas Station, History Museum and T Shirt stand into Category:Buildings. I left Barbershop in Category:B so you can see the difference. I have also added the top part of Buildings to the top of Category:Buildings. I am pretty sure this is what you are intending to do. Rappy 19:22, June 21, 2012 (UTC)
