[edit] Categories

"What are categories?

Categories allow articles to be placed in one or more groups, and allows those groups to be further categorized. When an article belongs to a category, it will contain a special link to a page that describes the category. Similarly, when a sub-category belongs to a parent category, it will contain a special link to the parent category's page. Each category page contains an introduction that can be edited like an article, and an automatically generated list of links to sub-categories and articles that belong to the category.

The software feature does not force a strict hierarchy or tree of categories, but allows multiple categorisation schemes to co-exist simultaneously. Because each article can appear in more than one category, and each category can appear in more than one parent category, the categories do not form a tree structure, but a more general directed graph. It is even possible to construct loops in the category graph, but this is seldom a good idea."
