This page gives an overview of all the categories used in this wiki and of their respective relations. If you're adding pages or images to the wiki, you often need to assign them a category, and it would be really nice if you take this overview into account :) for information on how to add categories see Help:Categories.
As a rule of thumb, you only need to add the lowest subcategory to a new page, which connects it to the rest of the category tree, This category hierarchy helps you to determine which suitable categories exist, also check articles on similar topics(by looking at the category list at the bottom of those articles), or ask we always happy to help ;)
