Categories
Hello. I noticed in this recent edit of yours you attempted to add a name directly to a category page.

In Wikipedia, the category must be added to the articles, not the other way around. Please see FAQ/Categorization For newer editors, it's understandably a counter-intuitive system.

Category pages are not intended to be exhaustive lists. They are navigation aids; merely groupings of related, existing English Wikipedia pages.

To categorize an article, first make sure it actually belongs to the category. Then, go to the article and add the category at the bottom of the page. Once published (saved) the blue-linked name of the article will automatically appear on the category page. To remove an article from appearing on a category page, edit the article and remove the category. Note, if there is no existing WP article on the subject, then there is nothing to do as far as categorization is concerned. Indeed, in this particular case, there is currently no WP article for someone known as Si Si or Sierra Bell, so there is nothing to categorize.

For further detailed information, see Help:Category and Categorization. Let me know if you need assistance or have any questions. Cheers! -- DB 1729 talk 23:59, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
