I'm from Langley, and unlike most of you, don't attend UBC. Langara represent!

I'm going to make an attempt to categorize things on the Wiki. It seems that nobody's done this from the start, so it could be an interesting undertaking...anyone else is welcome to help. If you didn't know about the categorization features of Mediawiki, just create a link to Category:CategoryName anywhere in the article, and the article will be added to that category. A link will be added at the bottom of the article, and the category page will contain that article. New categories can be created simply by linking a page to them, and each category can have information added about it and such on the category page in the normal fashion. Creating a link to more than one category will add the article to all the categories linked. This should make it easier to keep track of the various indexes of articles.
