User blog:Krayfish/Another Massive Organizational Overhaul

With the increasing number of users and articles, the category system is starting to fall into a bit of disarray once more. It's becoming harder to keep track of who has written what and where. So I'm planning to yet again overall the category system.

When drawn on a piece of paper, the current category system looks like a tree. This ideal for navigation as users will be able to more easily find related articles. For the next overall, this structure will be kept.

Changes

 * As you may already know, I've already begun archiving older, abandoned articles in the "Archives" category.
 * Introduce a new type of category that specifies which user created what article.
 * Example formatting: "Articles by User:Krayfish"
 * This is not the case for guides or other "public" articles. No such category will be necessary for these articles.
 * Have navigational templates for larger, more developed civilizations much like we have for the stories.
 * Example: You'll be able to access all Dhragolon articles from one page.
 * These templates will have the name of the civilization as the category.
 * Regarding the names in use already, such categories will be renamed. The current "Dhragolon" category for example will be renamed "Dhragolon individuals".
 * Images will now receive a category system.
 * Examples: Planet images, character images, etc.
 * A clean sweep of unneeded categories will be underway to make it easier for new users.
