Foods[edit]

There's no need to add Category:Foods to all those pages, they're already in subcategories like Category:Snacks and Category:Soups. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 18:19, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

There is a need, so people can find them all from the Category:Foods page and look at them all at once. --18:23, 7 September 2012 (UTC)SeraphIV
We don't categorize like that here. A page goes in the most specific category only and not in any parent categories. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 18:26, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
Okay, well there's a bunch of other articles around that break these rules too - incase you weren't aware. Is there a style guide somewhere that says the rules you're using here? --SeraphIV 18:29, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
Examples? —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 18:36, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
A good chunk of the items under the soups section of the food page, and this one in particular: Apple Pie. --SeraphIV 18:43, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
I corrected Apple Pie - if an item is a Soup/Snack/Meal/Dessert, that should be the type given in the infobox. I believe these types only apply to items crafted by chefs, so the food items you buy from merchants should just say Food.
I don't see anything wrong with the soups. Soup (or Food), Ingredient, and Recipe are in different category branches, so there's no parent/child duplication by using all 3 of them on the same page. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 18:56, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Okay, here are a list of items with soup in their name, but in Category:Foods:

And here are Stews and Chilis, listed under Soups in the Food page, but in Category:Foods:

And like I said above, if they are identified in-game as a "Soup," then the type in their infobox should be "Soup." If they are not, then they should remain a Food. —Dr Ishmael User Dr ishmael Diablo the chicken.png 19:19, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
