Categories
Hello. Regarding this recent edit of yours, I noticed you attempted to add an item directly to a category page.

In Wikipedia, categories must be added to the article, 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. To remove an article from a category, edit the article and remove the category. For instructions on how to do all this using VisualEditor, see. For further detailed information, see Help:Category and Categorization.

Let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions. Cheers! -- DB 1729 talk 19:46, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Sorry, can't be done. There is no Wikipedia article for the topic All About Her (company) / All About Her (brand) the brand name, so there is nothing to categorize. The two exmples you've linked above are WP articles and that's why and that is how they are categorized. The category was added to each of those pages. (see explanation above)
