How do I add categories to an article?

  • Trevj's reply:
    You can either:
    1. manually add "[[Category:Category name]]" to articles via the usual editing process, as described at
      above any stub templates and interlanguage links
      ); or
    2. install and use the automated HotCat script.
If adding manually, don't forget to make a note in the Edit summary!
