'''Welcome to the [[Project:Categorization/Teams|Maintenance Team]], aka "The Category Doctors"!''' '''Coordinator:''' [[McCallum-175|Doug McCallum]] The Categorization Maintenance Team is divided into topical sub-Teams that focus on specific category suggestions and errors. Most of these teams are topical, but Regional Teams may be established when needed. This gives you the option of getting involved in an area that best suits you and your experience level. ==Teams== '''[[Space:Content Maintenance Team|Content Maintenance Team]]''' : ''Team Leader: [[Crawford-15512|Amy Gilpin]]'' '''[[Space:Cemeteries Maintenance Team|Cemeteries Maintenance Team]]''' : ''Team Leader: vacant'' '''[[Space:ONS Maintenance Team|ONS Maintenance Team]]''' : ''Team Leader: vacant'' '''[[Space:OPS Maintenance Team|OPS Maintenance Team]]''' : ''Team Leader: vacant'' '''[[Space:Name Maintenance Team|Name Maintenance Team]]''' : ''Team Leader: vacant'' '''[[Space:Structure Maintenance Team|Structure Maintenance Team]]''' : ''Team Leader: [[Rassinot-1|Isabelle Rassinot]]'' ==Goals== * To maintain categories by correcting errors in category names. * To maintain categories by correcting errors in hierarchy placement. * To communicate and consult with Categorization Project Liaisons/Project members when necessary, in order to determine correct name and placement of project-related categories. ==Tasks== *Maintain Wanted Categories *Find Parent Categories for Uncategorized Categories *Review WT+ Category Errors [[Space:Categorization_Project_Maintenance_Team#Category_problem_reports_on_WikiTree.2B|category errors]] ===Description of the Maintenance Categories === :1. Wanted Categories (also called Red Categories) ::See: [[Special:Wantedcategories|Wanted Categories]]. ::When a manager first enters a new category on a profile and saves the profile, the category appears as {{Red|red}}. If the manager then completes the category set up and saves the new category page it shows as {{Green|green}}. ::Red Categories are listed as Wanted Categories. The list should be reviewed by members of the categorization project on a regular basis, if possible the category should be set up. This may require working with the profile manager and/or the relevant project. The best practice is to ask if you have any doubts about proper parent categories. ::If it is not possible to proceed with category set-up and the category continues to be red, leave it in the Wanted Categories. Instructions about how to maintain these categories are outlined [[Space:Categorization_Project_Maintenance_Team#How_to_Work_the_Uncategorized_and_Wanted_Lists|below]]. :2. Uncategorized Categories ::See: [[Special:Uncategorizedcategories|Uncategorized Categories]] ::When a category is saved and no parent category is entered the category goes to the Uncategorized Category list. These can be either new categories or old ones where the parent category was removed. If naming conventions are changed, all of the old category names go to this list. Many categories in the list are simple typos or format errors, ie, town name and parish or county name in reverse order as an example. Some have had the content removed and are intended to be deleted, but the deletion process was not followed. ::Review of the Uncategorized list is required because they appear as green categories on profiles. Managers often do not realize they are uncategorized. The list should be reviewed by members of the categorization project on a regular basis. If appropriate, the category set-up should be completed by assigned parent category/categories. Instructions about how to maintain these categories are outlined [[Space:Categorization_Project_Maintenance_Team#How_to_Work_the_Uncategorized_and_Wanted_Lists|below]]. :3. DBE Category Suggestions ::[[Trtnik-2|Aleš]] provides us with a list of suggestions (or errors) related to categories. It can be found [[DBE_Categories_Suggestions|here]]. The suggestions that need to be addressed begin with an "8", but the suggestions that begin with '9" are simply lists and need no action. This list is updated daily. :4. Pending Categories ::There is a long list of Pending Categories they are all under [[:Category:Maintenance_Categories|Category: Maintenance Categories]] These categories will almost always have profiles in them. The correct category parent name has not been determined after making a reasonable effort. Categories should be added to the pending category that best fits, the goal being that when project members are looking for categories they will most likely find them. The correct parent name should be resolved jointly with the relevant project or by independent research by a member of the categorization project. :: :::This message should be added to profiles: :::::Warning – categories are not set up :::::Please review categories. :: :See: [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/153762/have-you-seen-the-message-warning-categories-are-not-set-up G2G_Question] === To Do === Tasks are maintained on Google Docs Spreadsheet. [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1x2KrLuvBl3qkDZwedYhYwuwoSyCFUaghT6SBoE0xyHQ/edit#gid=107467072 Google Tracking Sheet] === How to Work the Uncategorized and Wanted Lists === :The goal of reviewing the uncategorized and wanted lists is to complete the proper set up for the correct category for each profile. When the category is properly set up it will disappear from these lists and appear in the proper parent category. Note: If the profile is not open, a message should be left in the public comments on the profile page. :Category names in the list fall into major groups – ::1. '''The name is correct, but the parent category has not been entered.''' :::Action: Set Up. The category should be set up by adding the proper parent category. (Note: This is a common error in setting up cemetery categories. It may be necessary to add a town location for new cemeteries as well.) ::2: '''The name is incorrect''' :::Action: Delete. Remove all content from category page and type {{Delete Category}} at the top. Save the page. See: [[Help:Category Creation and Removal#Deleting.2C_Renaming.2C_or_Merging_a_Category|Deleting Categories]]. ::3. '''The name is incorrect, and there are profiles attached.''' :::Action: Rename. The correct name should be determined and: ::::If the correct category already exists, it should be renamed to correct category name. Remove category content and add {{Rename Category|}} at the top of the Category page. EditBot will rename the category and delete the incorrect category. See: [[:Category:EditBOT#Rename_a_category|Rename a Category]]. Note that the category will be ''renamed'' and that this will occur on all profiles attached to the category, without regard to privacy level. ::::if the correct category does not yet exist, create the correct category name, set it up with parent category/categories, then follow the instructions to rename the incorrect category. Note that Editbot cannot rename a category ''if'' the correct category name is '''red'''. The category ''must'' be set up. ::4. '''The name is wrong and It is clearly a misspelling or a typo, or there is evidence that the manager created the category and then realized it was incorrect.''' :::Action: Delete. Remove any other content from the Category page and add {{Delete Category}} at the top of the Category page. See: [[Help:Category Creation and Removal#Deleting.2C_Renaming.2C_or_Merging_a_Category|Deleting Categories]]. === Category Problem Reports on WikiTree+ === The Categorization project maintains category names and category structure (or heirarchy). Errors are in a list included in the Data Doctors Project, and are part of the Database Suggestions. The list is here: [[DBE_Categories_Suggestions|Category Suggestions]]. ===Links=== * Categorization Project Page: [[Project:Categorization|link]]. * Categorization Project Liaisons page: [[Space:Categorization_-_Project_Liaisons|link]]. *Leaders can see the recent changes to Category pages [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special%3ARecentchanges&namespace=14 here]. This allows us to keep an eye on new categories being created, which leads to incorrect categories being found and fixed sooner rather than later. *Categorization Help Page: [[Help:Categorization|link]] *Category Errors Freespace Page: [[Space:DBE_8000|link]]

Welcome to the Categorization Liaisons Portal! [[Category:Categorization Project]] == What is a Categorization Liaison?== Category Liaisons are members of the Categorization Project who are appointed by Project Leader(s) and act as a representative of their [[Help:Projects|parent project]]. The role of a Liaison is typically filled by Project Leaders, Project Coordinators or Team Leaders; however, any member may be appointed by the project's leadership. Once a Liaison has been appointed to the Categorization Project, the Liaison will be given the Categorization Badge and will be listed on this page. The Liaison will be responsible for ensuring that communication is maintained between their parent project and the Categorization Project. This commitment means routinely monitoring the the Categorization Google Group discussions for any topics, proposals or discussions that may be of interest to their project, and relaying that information back and forth to their parent project and the Categorization Project. Other members of this Team will include members of the Categorization Project who have been invited to join because of their commitment to and understanding of Categorization guidelines, their broad perspective of how categorization affects WikiTree as a whole, and their prior experience with this Project. ==Goals== Liaisons will regularly: * communicate and consult with other Liaisons and the Categorization Project in order to determine correct naming and placement of project-related categories; * provide review, advice and discussion on proposed changes or developments in project-associated category hierarchies; * facilitate discussion in the G2G forum in regard to major changes in the established category hierarchy or the addition of new hierarchies/structures; * review the categorization hierarchy to assure that it is intelligible and useful; * identify, discuss and help to resolve policy issues that affect general categorization; and * identify ways that categorization can best assist the objectives of WikiTree members in doing genealogy. == Current Liaisons == ''In process - please contact your Project's Leader(s) for more information...''

__NOTOC__ It is very important — and often very difficult! — to follow the naming conventions and structures that have been established by the WikiTree community. The hierarchy is constantly growing and being improved-upon. If a category structure does not currently exist in WikiTree, or you think there need to be modifications to an existing category structure, then the structure must be [[Project:Categorization/Procedures|documented, collaborated on and approved by the community]]. === Proposal === :Items put forward for consideration and discussion. These items are normally submitted through [[Project:Categorization/Procedures#Step_1:_Draft_the_Proposal|formal procedures (see Step 1: Draft the Proposal)]] submitted to the Categorization Project or the [https://www.wikitree.com/contact/category/ new ''category request form''], but in some cases may be initiated via questions and discussions in {{G2G}}, as a part of new or revised [[Help:Projects|Project goals/needs]], or as presented by [[Help:Leaders|WikiTree Leadership]]. === Categorization Review === :Items currently under discussion in the Categorization Project [[Project:Categorization/Procedures#Step_2:_Categorization_Liaison_Review|(see Step 2: Categorization Review)]]. Often, the discussion is as simple as checking to see if something similar has already been created and can be mirrored. In other cases, as with global topics that can span multiple regional categories and category streams, thorough review will be requested by all affiliated or affected projects to verify any potential conflicts, concerns or possible needs for exclusions. === G2G Review === :Items that have passed through Categorization Review and have moved to {{G2G}} [[Project:Categorization/Procedures#Step_3:_Formal_G2G_Proposal|(see Step 3: Formal G2G Proposal)]]. During the G2G Review process, all community members are invited to discuss the proposal. Any modifications and/or additions to the draft proposal will be documented (if applicable or as needed). === G2G Approval === :Items that have passed through G2G Review and have moved to formal approval stages [[Project:Categorization/Procedures#Step_4:_G2G_Last_Call|(see Step 4: G2G Last Call)]]. During the G2G Last Call process, all community members are invited to discuss and vote on the formal proposal. Any minor modifications and/or additions to the draft proposal will be documented (if applicable or as needed). === Policy / Usage Documentation === :Items that have been approved in {{G2G}}. At this stage, the Categorization Project Leaders will ensure that relevant Help, Project and/or Guidance pages have been documented. Once documented, an announcement is made in {{G2G}} introducing the finalized policy / usage documentation [[Project:Categorization/Procedures#Step_5:_G2G_Structure_Announcement|(see Step 5: G2G Structure Announcement)]].

If a category structure does not currently exist in WikiTree, or you think there need to be modifications to an existing category structure, then the structure must be documented, collaborated on and approved by the community. '''''This process takes time''''', but categories are highly debated topics. To some this feels like a long time for especially if you're eager to fix an existing mess, but it gives enough time for all active members to chime in, and it accounts for people who might be on vacation or away from their computer for a few days so they don't get shut out. In total, it's longer than the amount of time given for unresponsive profile managers. In many cases, the process would take longer than 2 weeks because debates may occur in G2G. If there's a lengthy debate happening in G2G that doesn't look like it's going to be resolved within the normal timeframe, the Categorization Project leadership may be called upon to make a decision in order to allow the process to continue. This would be a last resort since collaboration is the ideal solution. === Step 1: Draft the Proposal === :The easiest way to start is by creating a [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?action=newspace free-space page] where you can draft the proposed category structure that you would like to see. Even though this will be a draft page, try to write as if it's an existing structure that you are describing. Try to explain to the reader of the page how they should implement the category structure. It is also beneficial to include a visual mapping of how the categories would be nested. :Please ensure that you put a notice at the top of the page (before any other content) that makes it clear to readers that the page is a draft for review. After this is completed, proceed to [[Project:Categorization/Procedures#Step_2:_Categorization_Liaison_Review|Step 2]]. === Step 2: Initial G2G Review === :Now that your proposal has been fully drafted, a member can submit the proposal (and a brief background if needed) to {{G2G}}. :During the review process, all interested Projects and members will be given the chance to provide feedback on the proposed structure. This review will consist of the following topics for consideration: #Does the structure conform to the guidelines on [[Help:Category_Names#General_Rules|General Naming]]? #Does the structure fit within, beside or cause any potential issues with an [[Help:Category_Names|existing documented and approved structure]] and/or does this structure mirror a [[Help:Category_Names|previously approved structure]]? #Does the structure have any potential overlap with other [[Help:Projects|Projects]]? #Does the structure pose any possible [[DBE_Categories_Suggestions|DBE Categories Suggestions]]? :All modifications and/or additions to the draft proposal should be documented (if applicable or as needed).

__NOTOC__ =Categorization Project Challenges= Announcing our Categorization challenges. Join in and earn a sticker while helping us reduce the number of DBE category suggestions. ==Challenge #2== #June 2021 - Runs one week, from 16 Jun - 23 Jun 2021 No Tracker will be used; this is a challenge to reduce suggestion numbers only Starting number: ::16 Jun, 5651 suggestions - (total category DBE suggestions: 54234) ::17 Jun, 4887 suggestions - (total category DBE suggestions: 52124) ::18 Jun 3976 suggestions - (total category DBE suggestions: 50156) ::23 Jun 2569 suggestions - (total category DBE suggestions: 46361) ===Results=== 3082 suggestions cleared! (overall: 7873 cleared) Great work, Categorization Project! ===Instructions=== :Working on [[Space:DBE _8071|DBE 8071 Headings Used on Category]] Headings are not necessary on category pages. From [[Help:Category Creation and Removal]], which states "Category pages should include one or two sentences about the category itself, especially if there is any confusion about when this category should be used and when it should not. The text should describe the purpose of the category. It should not contain unique content. " Many pages do contain unique content, complete with sources and headings. For this challenge, we will focus on removing the headings. This is a bit more challenging, especially when dealing with Project categories. If you are going to make major edits to project categories, it's best to check with them first. Most of the remaining suggestions in this list involve military unit categories, which have been created following a template that included adding headings, sources, etc. before this practice was discontinued. These are fine to edit without checking with Military and War Project first (Natalie is an M&W leader and has given the OK). Much of the time, what you want to do is remove the === === heading markup and replace it with bold print. You will probably need to use a return
following the bold print. Here are some common changes to make: #Change ===Links=== to '''Links:'''
#Change ===Sources=== to '''See:'''
Other times, as is the case with the military unit categories, the heading can simply be removed. Use your best judgement. Again, '''DO NOT TOUCH personal categories''' except your own! ===Where to Find Suggestions=== You can use the main list (listed first) or find your own areas of interest. Here are some examples. *[https://www.softdata.si/wt/Cat/Err_8071.htm Link to the DBE Suggestion List] *Examples of specific lists to work: #[https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTCatNavigate/Category.htm?Category=1900%20United%20States%20Federal%20Census,%20Ohio&Levels=1 1900 US Federal Census, Ohio] #[https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWebCategoryNavigate/Category.htm?category=South%20Carolina,%20United%20States%20Civil%20War South Carolina, Civil War] #[https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTCatNavigate/Category.htm?Category=England,%20Name%20Studies&Levels=3 England, Name Studies] ===Examples of Edits=== '''NOTE: Please don't edit the example categories!'''

[[Category: Categorization Help]] {{Image|file=Categorization_Toolbox.png |align=C |size=l |caption=Welcome to Category School }} ===Lesson One: Personal Categories=== I'm beginning a series of posts to inform on the use of our category hierarchy. Today's topic is Personal Categories, which are a great tool to use in your WikiTree activities. Let's say you are researching profiles for a project or just for your own family research and you want to have a way to keep this organized. You can use personal categories to do it. Just decide what will work for your purposes, then create some categories. Your top level personal category is [[Category:YourWikiID]](See: [[Help:WikiTree_ID|more information about WikiTree ID]]) , so mine is [[Category:Durbin-702]]. Go to your own profile page and add the category if you didn't already create one. The category will be red, but click that red link and enter the parent category into the category edit box.The parent category you should add is [[Category:Personal Categories]]. Then scroll down and save it. Now you have your personal category. Next you need to add subcategories, where you will add profiles and/or other subcategories. The subcategories MUST start with your WikiTree ID in order to be your personal subcategories. One of mine is [[Category:Durbin-702 Needs Biography]]. If I just used [[Category:Needs Biography]] and gave it a parent of [[Category:Durbin-702]] then it would be for WikiTree-wide use, which is not what I want. I want to have a place for profiles I manage or otherwise care about, so that I know that "these profiles need a biography written." I can use any names I like for sub-category names, but, as noted in [[Help:Category Names]], "The only allowed characters are Letters in any alphabet, numbers, space, comma, dot, hyphen (only the normal one but not wide, ...), single quotation mark (as apostrophe but do not use apostrophe) and parentheses (in pair). There is also a colon in the name but must be used only following "Category:"" The subcategories should have a parent of [[Category:YourWikiID]]. The only profile that should have a parent category of [[Category:YourWikiID]] is your own! And only WikiTree members can have personal categories; other profiles may not. If you find that you no longer need some of the personal subcategories, feel free to delete them. If you don't know how to do that, we can help with that:here. Here is a screenshot of my personal category page: {{Image|file=Wikimedia_Commons_photos-22.png |align=C |size=l |caption=Durbin-702 Personal Category page }} More information is here: [[Help:Personal_Categories|Help:Personal_Categories]] (See post and all comments:[https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/714775/category-school-lesson-one-personal-categories here].) ===Lesson Two: Wanted Categories=== We’ll take a look at “Wanted categories" which you may be more familiar with as “red” categories. (As in "Help, my category is red!") What exactly are these anyway? Red categories are categories listed on a page somewhere, but that do not exist as an actual category object...YET. If you’ve ever created a new category to add to a profile, then saved your work and looked at the profile again, the category link was red. This is because it is not linked into the category hierarchy. Red=unlinked=wanted. So, how do you link your red category to the category hierarchy? Simple: you assign a parent category that is already a member of the hierarchy! Sometimes you can easily figure out the parent or parents (categories can have more than one, but should have only one within the same category stream.) An example is a cemetery category. For most countries, when adding a cemetery, you add the parent categories of the municipality it’s located within, as well as a cemetery grouping category such as a county. So, I add a new cemetery [[Category:All Faiths Cemetery, Worcester, Massachusetts]] and the link to it is red in the profile after I save. Now what? Well, since I know that US cemeteries group into county cemetery categories, I look up “Worcester, Massachusetts” and find it’s in Worcester County. So, I click the red category and add [[Category:Worcester, Massachusetts]] for the municipality and [[Category:Worcester County, Massachusetts, Cemeteries]], add a little information like the address or a link to the Find a Grave cemetery page, and save the page. Now the category link will be green. Other times, the parent category is not that obvious and you may need to do a little research in order to complete your red category’s set up. This is usually the case with many Military & War categories, such as military units. You may need to do some searching in order to find the proper parent category(ies). Use your Find>Search>Categories and type a search parameter into the box. Alternately, you could “drill down” by starting at the top level [[Category:Categories]], but you should already have an idea where you might need to look. It can take a lot of guessing when you use this method. Sometimes you will find a red category after you enter parameters in a template. An example of this is adding a category to the One Name Study template. {{One Name Study|name=Durbin|category=Italy, Durbin Name Study}}. If I added that to a profile and saved it, then looked at the profile, there would be a red category in the list of categories because [[Category:Italy, Durbin Name Study]] does not exist in the Durbin Name Study category hierarchy. My next step, then, if I wanted to have that red category join the party would be to click on the red-linked category, which opens the category edit box. I’d type in [[Category:Durbin Name Study]], type in a little bit of text to explain the category usage, then save the page. Now the link to the category on the profile will be green and it is part of the category hierarchy. The list of wanted or red categories is fairly long and categorization project members are tasked with adding them to the hierarchy as part of our category maintenance. You can take a peek at it Here. While you are looking at it, notice any trends in what's wanted? (Ding, ding, YES! Cemeteries, military units, places, and DNA make up the bulk of these categories with no parents.) Users can prevent further additions to this list if a little extra care is taken when creating new categories. If you create a category and it’s red-linked and you do not know which parent categories to assign, just ask for help here in G2G and use the tag “categorization”. (See post and all comments: [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/718109/category-school-lesson-two-wanted-categories here].) ===Lesson Three: The Category Page=== Hi again, today I'm going to cover what you find on the page for every category in our Category namespace. Here is [[:Category:Health]]. If you have trouble seeing it, you can open this photo in another tab. It's [https://www.wikitree.com/photo.php/5/5f/Wikimedia_Commons_photos-24.png here]. {{Image|file=Wikimedia_Commons_photos-24.png |align=c |size=l |caption=Screenshot of Category:Health }} I chose [[:Category:Health]] because you can see all of the information that’s available to you in one screen shot. Let’s start at the upper left. First you see the name of the category page, which is Category:Health. One thing I want to point out is that there really should be no space between the colon after “Category” and before “Health”. If you name it with a space there, it will still work though. Directly beneath this we see [[:Category:Categories]]. This is the only parent category of [[:Category:Health]]. Sometimes there will be more parent categories to a particular category. By the way, [[:Category:Categories]] is the top of the category tree and has no parent category. It is the only category that has no parent category. Beneath this, you see a long yellow box. This has been applied by the use of the AKA template, which links to parallel categories in an array of languages. In the photo, you see that [[Category:Health]] can be viewed in England and in French. So, if you clicked the "fr", you would see that category populated with French language subcategories. Beneath that, there are the Subcategories, and [[:Category:Health]] has 7 subcategories. They are sorted in alphabetical order and the links to the subcategories are displayed. [[:Category:Health]] is a “container” category and it is a high level (also called top level) category that does not contain profiles. If there were profiles attached, they would be displayed beneath the subcategories under the heading “People or pages in Health.” At the bottom of the page, in the center, you see the date of the last modification to the page and how many times it has been accessed. Now for the links. In the upper right, there are 5 links, each with its own purpose. The first is “Limit to Watchlist.” If you wanted to check to see if any profile in your watchlist was attached to this category, you could click the link and see the result. Next is “How to Categorize,” which is a link to [[Help:Categorization]], so that is one click away as long as you’re looking at a category page. The next link is “Category Search,” which opens the category search page. The search box will be in the upper left after you click and will use the google custom search to look for whatever category you wish. This will not search any other WikiTree page types. Now we come to the “WikiTree+ search.” This is a handy way to search WikiTree and will be the subject of its own Category School class in the future. For now, just know that you can search for categories there by using two variables and you can also search for content in a category page. So, if you wanted to find 100 profiles containing the words “Ohio orphan’’ you could search that and the results will display. The final link at the top is “WikiTree+Navigate.” When you click that from a category page, it will open to display the structure to two levels (it the category has that many.) Click here to see the WIkiTree+ Navigate page for [[:Category:Health]]. Under those links you see the link to [edit] the category page. If you click that, you will open the edit box of the category, where you add text, links, etc. We will cover that page on another Category School as well. Moving to the bottom right of the page, you see three final links. The first is another [edit] link, which is the same as the one we just talked about. Next is the [what links here] llink, which will show you any pages that link to the category (person profiles and free-space profiles). Finally, there is a [change history] link. When you click this, you can see the entire edit history of the category from its inception to its latest edit. Each edit is on one line and contains the time and date of the edit, the WikiID of the user who edited, and some comments. If there is more than one edit showing, you can click the radio buttons and compare the versions to see what was changed. That covers the Category Page. (See post and all comments: [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/724068/category-school-lesson-three-the-category-page here].)

[[Category:Categorization Help]] ==Basic Process / Procedure== # A Project (or an individual or group of individuals) proposes a new or modified category structure by documenting the proposed structure on a space page # The proposal (and documented space page) is brought to the attention of the Vision & Collaboration Team to be reviewed and commented on by all interested project liaisons #* Liaisons take the discussion back to their interested/affected projects for internal review #* Changes, Modifications or Clarifications to the proposal are made as needed # The proposal (and documented space page) is brought to G2G for full community review #* Changes, Modifications or Clarifications to the proposal are made as needed # A "last call" post is made in G2G for final community review #* Changes, Modifications or Clarifications to the proposal are made as needed # Final structure is documented thoroughly (as a user guide on how to use the structure, and where to ask questions about the structure) and is either linked and nested into the existing structure documents, or documented on a Help page by a Leader # Announcement of new structure made in G2G with link to the full documentation (user guide) ==Visual Workflow== {{Image|file=Category_Structure_Proposal_Process.png |caption=Category Structure Proposal Process }} ==Full Process / Procedure== Everyone is encouraged to create new categories. The one caveat is that if a structure has not been discussed, then it should be before new categories are created. Often, the discussion is as simple as checking to see if something similar has already been created and can be mirrored. Other things take more time and thought. Discussion can be started in the [Google email group] or on G2G. Be sure to tag "categorization" if you're starting in G2G. Once discussions within the Categorization group or on G2G have settled on something, the member who's handling the task should go to G2G to make an announcement of what's been discussed. This should be phrased as "Here's what we talked about; what do you think?" Make sure to use real profiles as examples so it's clear enough for everyone to understand and that any applicable tags are used so it grabs the attention of members who are interested. Community members may want to discuss what's being proposed, or may not. Wait either one week after the initial post was created (if no one objects) or one week after the debates on the original post have concluded. Then another post needs to be created. It should be an announcement of the final plan, something like "Here's the finalized plan for what to do with X categories, if anyone has any alternative suggestions they should post here." The "Here's the finalized plan" post has to stay up for one week without any major disagreement or debate, to allow for people who might have missed the other post to chime in. Then, after the week without debate has passed, an official announcement is posted on G2G about the rule change. This is left up for at least 2 full days, just in case something comes up at the last minute, before the process of changing the categories begins. If any changes need to be made to the help pages, one of the Categorization Project Leaders would make those changes once the process has begun. This process takes some time, but categories are highly debated topics. To some this feels like a long time for especially if you're eager to fix an existing mess, but it gives enough time for all active members to chime in, and it accounts for people who might be on vacation or away from their computer for a few days so they don't get shut out. In total, it's longer than the amount of time given for unresponsive profile managers. In many cases the process would take longer than 2 weeks because of debates happening. If there's a lengthy debate happening on G2G that doesn't look like it's going to resolve itself for a long time, the Categorization Project leadership may be called upon to make a decision so the process could continue, but this would only need to happen if it looks like no decision can be agreed upon otherwise. The project member in charge of the task can keep track of the dates on the to-do chart. That way everyone else in the project can keep track of how far along in the process a task is, and how much time is left before the process is completed.

[[Category:Categorization_Project]] '''Category Tree Level 1''' is the list of the permanent top-level categories. These top-level categories have been agreed to in G2G discussions and through the collaborative efforts of the [[:Category:Categorization_Project|Categorization_Project]]. [http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/143702/what-is-the-purpose-of-categories?show=143702#q143702 What is the purpose of categories?] Apr 29, 2015 == Overview == The purpose of this page is to be a G2G-linked reference blueprint of the agreed top-level category tree to be maintained. [http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/28656/top-level-category-hierarchy?show=28656#q28656 "Top Level Category Hierarchy"] May 31, 2013 Categories in this list should not be moved from their top-level position in the category tree, unless by consensus through the project and/or G2G discussions. Also, no new categories should be created or moved ''into'' the top level without discussion consensus. === Top-Level Explained === The top-level categories are simply the small group of the most general "parent" categories. They are each populated by other categories, which are more narrow in focus, and which are related to each other. Those "child" categories are also known as sub-categories. In this way, each category has a parent category. This structure makes it possible to easily navigate from any any categorized page, through successive layers of categories, to reach a more general or ultimate top-level parent category. Another way to think of the top level of the category tree might be as the collection of the root categories. In genealogy, a root ancestor has many successive layers of descendants. In the same way, a root category has many successive layers of related sub-categories, which become more and more narrow in focus the farther away they are from the root. === How To Start a G2G Discussion === G2G discussions about any major changes to any of these top-level categories can be started from this page. To do so, follow these steps: # [http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/ask?cat=2 Start a G2G discussion with this link] # in the box for category select "Policy and Style" # in the box for WikiTree ID/URL put '''Space:Category_Tree_Level_1''' # in the box for Surnames and project tags put '''categorization''' If the category you wish to discuss already exists and is on this page in the lists below, first check to see if it already has a linked G2G discussion about it. Read those G2G discussions to see if they address your question. But if the category is not listed on this page, then try to locate it on the lower level pages (under construction soon) for discussion from there.

But the amount of description, graphics, etc. should be limited within reason, so as not to detract from its main purpose as a category listing of related narrower sub-categories.

See the subcategories in this category for the military history of each country in Europe; *[[:Category: Wars]] contains subcategories for wars divided into time spans eg [[:Category: Wars 1000-1499]]; [[:Category: Wars 1500-1799]]; == Other Languages == Parallel or mirrored category trees are to be developed in other major languages.

[[Category:Iraq]] :Iraqi Governorates المحافظات العراقية (Arabic) پارێزگاکانی عێراق (Kurdish) Also known as: Muḥāfażah محافظة (Arabic) پارێزگا‎ Parêzgeha == Current Governorates and Capital Cities == Iraq consists of 19 governorates (muḥāfażah in Arabic), also known as "provinces". Former President Saddam Hussein divided the country into eighteen governorates in the 1970s for reasons of ethnic manipulation. A portion of the Kurdish-inhabited area of the country was granted autonomy in 1970. In 2003, after opposition from Kurdish people regarding the division of Kurdistan into governorates, the autonomous standing of only three Iraqi Kurdish provinces was re-confirmed in 2005 in the constitution of Iraq, leaving out many other Kurdish majority regions, such as Kirkuk, Khanaqin, Sinjar and Mandali-Badra, outside the autonomous Kurdish region. In 2014 the decision was made to create the Halabja Governorate out of the Halabja District of Sulaymaniyah Governorate. On 21 January 2014, the Council of Ministers of the Government of Iraq approved in principle proposals to create more governorates. The Council announced that two new governorates Tal Afar and Tuz Khurmatu would be formed from the current Nineveh Governorate and Saladin Governorate, respectively. It was also announced that the city of Fallujah of the Al Anbar Governorate would become a separate governorate, which was announced in response to a Sunni Islamist uprising in the city. {| border="1" align="center" class="wikitable sortable" style="font-style:; font-size:100%; border: 3px Solid Blue;" |- !Governorate !Capital City |- |[[:Category:Al Anbar Governorate, Iraq|Al Anbar]] |[[:Category:Ramadi, Iraq|Ramadi]] |- |Babil Governorate, Iraq |[[:Category:Hillah, Iraq|Hillah]] |- |[[:Category:Baghdad Governorate, Iraq|Baghdad]] |[[:Category:Baghdad, Iraq|Baghdad]] |- |[[:Category:Basra Governorate, Iraq|Basra]] |[[:Category:Basra, Iraq|Basra]] |- |[[:Category:Dhi Qar Governorate, Iraq|Dhi Qar]] |[[:Category:Nasiriyah, Iraq|Nasiriyah]] |- |[[:Category:Al-Qādisiyyah Governorate, Iraq|Al-Qādisiyyah]] |[[:Category:Al Diwaniyah, Iraq|Al Diwaniyah]] |- |[[:Category:Diyala Governorate, Iraq|Diyala]] |[[:Category:Baqubah, Iraq|Baqubah]] |- |[[:Category:Duhok Governorate, Iraq|Duhok]] |Duhok |- |Erbil Governorate, Iraq |[[:Category:Erbil, Iraq|Erbil]] |- |[[:Category:Halabja Gorvernorate, Iraq|Halabja]] |[[:Category:Halabja, Iraq|Halabja]] |- |[[:Category:Karbala Governorate, Iraq|Karbala]] |[[:Category:Karbala, Iraq|Karbala]] |- |[[:Category:Kirkuk Governorate, Iraq|Kirkuk]] |[[:Category:Kirkuk, Iraq|Kirkuk]] |- |[[:Category:Maysan Governorate, Iraq|Maysan]] |Amarah, Iraq |- |[[:Category:Muthanna Governorate, Iraq|Muthanna]] |[[:Category:Samawah, Iraq|Samawah]] |- |[[:Category:Najaf Governorate, Iraq|Najaf]] |[[:Category:Najaf, Iraq|Najaf]] |- |[[:Category:Nineveh Governorate, Iraq|Nineveh]] |[[:Category:Mosul, Iraq|Mosul]] |- |[[:Category:Saladin Governorate, Iraq|Saladin]] |[[:Category:Tikrit, Iraq|Tikrit]] |- |[[:Category:Sulaymaniyah Governorate, Iraq|Sulaymaniyah]] |[[:Category:Sulaymaniyah, Iraq|Sulaymaniyah]] |- |[[:Category:Wasit Governorate, Iraq|Wasit]] |[[:Category:Kut, Iraq|Kut]] |} == Previous Governorates == {| border="1" align="center" class="wikitable sortable" style="font-style:; font-size:100%; border: 3px Solid Blue;" |- !Governorate !Now Part of |- |Category:Mosul Governorate, Iraq |[[:Category:Nineveh Governorate, Iraq|Nineveh Governorate]] [[:Category:Duhok Governorate, Iraq|Duhok Governorate]] |- |Diwaniya Governorate, Iraq |[[:Category:Al-Qādisiyyah Governorate, Iraq|Al-Qādisiyyah Governorate ]] [[:Category:Muthanna Governorate, Iraq|Muthanna Governorate]] [[:Category:Najaf Governorate, Iraq|Najaf Governorate]] |- |Dulaim Governorate, Iraq (–1962) Ramadi Governorate (1962–1976) |[[:Category:Al Anbar Governorate, Iraq|Al Anbar Governorate]] |- |Muntafiq Governorate, Iraq (–1976) |[[:Category:Dhi Qar Governorate, Iraq|Dhi Qar Governorate]] |- |Category:Amara Governorate, Iraq (–1976) |[[:Category:Maysan Governorate, Iraq|Maysan Governorate]] |- |Kut Governorate, Iraq (–1976) |[[:Category:Wasit Governorate, Iraq|Wasit Governorate]] |- |[[:Category:Baghdad Governorate, Iraq|Baghdad Governorate]] |[[:Category:Baghdad Governorate, Iraq|Baghdad Governorate]] [[:Category:Saladin Governorate, Iraq|Saladin Governorate]] |- |Kikuk Governorate, Iraq (–1976) At-Ta'mim Governorate, Iraq (1976–2006) |[[:Category:Kirkuk Governorate, Iraq|Kirkuk Governorate]] |} == Sources == *[[Wikipedia:Governorates of Iraq]]

{{Profile-box|The purpose of this page is to serve as a reference for category names for the US state of Hawaii.}} === Hawaii === Hawaii is the official state name (encompassing all islands) and is used on government documents. There are categories for historic Hawaii, now all placed under [[:Category:Hawaii History]]: * [[:Category:Ancient Hawaii]] (until 1810) * [[:Category:Kingdom of Hawaii]] (1795-1893) * [[:Category:Hawaii Territory]] (1898-1959) There is a 5 year gap between Kingdom of Hawaii and Hawaii Territory, which corresponds to the Republic of Hawaii. === Hawaii Counties === Hawaii has 5 counties: # Hawaiʻi County # Honolulu County # Kalawao County # Kauaʻi County # Maui County For the counties which include an okina (Kauai and Hawaii): ''The United States Board on Geographic Names lists relevant place names both with and without the ʻokina and kahakō (macron) in the Geographic Names Information System. Colloquially and formally, the forms have long been used interchangeably.'' (Per [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CA%BBOkina#Geographic_names_in_the_United_States Wikipedia]). It has been decided, for simplicity, to use county names without diacritics. In consequence, the names of county categories should be: # Hawaii County, Hawaii # Honolulu County, Hawaii # Kalawao County, Hawaii # Kauai County, Hawaii # Maui County, Hawaii ===Hawaii Municipalities=== All location categories for cities, towns, villages, or other municipalities should be named without diacritics. {{Example|Example: [[Category:Kapaa, Hawaii]]}} === Hawaii Cemeteries === Cemetery group categories (cemeteries by county) should follow the spelling adopted for the corresponding county categories. If the official name of the cemetery (confirmed by local signage) includes diacritics, they may be used in the cemetery name part of the category name.

[[Category:Italy Project]] ==How to use Italian Geographic Categories== * Add geographic categories for any life event: birth, marriage, death, the family's residence, other places where a person physically was. * '''Categories for towns and municipalities are added in Italian language''' (use Wikipedia and change the language to Italian on the left side, if not sure how it is spelled in Italian). The categories of regions and provinces are available in both Italian and English. They mirror each other with the aka-template. * You should add the name of a town in the location fields for birth, marriage and death, how it was used then and there by local residents. See [[Space:Italy_Project_Location_Field_Guidelines|Italy Project Location Field Guidelines]]. For example, add "Borgo Poncarale, Poncarale, Brescia, Lombardy, Lombardo-Veneto Kingdom" in the birth location. However, '''for location categories, always add the category of today's name of a town'''. For example, add [[:Category:Poncarale, Brescia]] as category. * Always select the narrowest applicable category. That is, choose the most-specific, lowest-level category you can find. For example, put a profile in [[:Category:San Pietro a Maida, Catanzaro]] rather than [[:Category:Province_of_Catanzaro]]. * You may add the category of a province or of a region, if no further detail is known. You can replace this category later, if you find a detailed location for this profile. * If you can't find the category in the profile edit mode, you may want to '''browse the [[:Category:Regions_of_Italy]]'''. * '''[[:Category: Italy, Emigrants|Migration categories]] are set up in English, with the today's name of the region.''' The lowest migration categories in WikiTree are "Migrants from Region to Region", for example [[:Category: Migrants from Calabria to New York]]. Always use the lowest available category. * If you are not confident in creating categories, '''please send a request to the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Italy_Project_Location_Category_Team Team Leader] of Italy Project Location Categories and we will be happy to create the category'''. Please include one person profile that needs the new category. ==How to create Italian Geographic Categories== Italy's regional structure is maintained in both English and Italian languages via the Aka template. '''The categories for towns/municipality however are created in Italian language.''' We use Italian Wikipedia as reference for the political structure and for the name of the municipality (Italian: comune). ===Structure=== Italy is divided into twenty different regions. They are outlined in the [[Space:Italy_Regions_Team|Regions table]]. See also the [[:Category:Regions_of_Italy]] Each region is further divided into provinces which are composed of many municipalities (Italian: comuni), with the exception of Aosta Valley which has no separate provinces. ====Category Mapping==== :[[Category:Italy]]<--Top Level category, no profiles ::[[Category:Regions of Italy]]<--Top Level category, no profiles :::[[Category:Region, Italy]]<--Mid Level category, may contain profiles if province or town is not known ::::[[Category:Province of XXXX]]<-- Mid Level category, may contain profiles if town is not known :::::[[Category:Town/Comune, Province]] <---Landing level category for profiles ===Categories for Towns/Comuni=== When creating a town/comune category for the Italy Project, it is important to have the '''town name first''' followed by the province the town is located in. For example, a town in Calabria would have the following category: {{Example|Example:[[Category:San Pietro a Maida, Catanzaro]]}} That formatting is what the people of Italy use to send mail. It is similar to how the states of the United States of America are designated with "Town, State" being the preferred vernacular. Once that category has been made, it must be placed in the greater regional category. In this case, San Pietro a Maida, Catanzaro fits into the Province of Catanzaro category and that Category fits into the greater Calabria category. ====Categories exceptions==== The political structure in Italy has several exceptions when it's coming to provinces. Such as the autonomous region Friuli-Venezia Giulia, which has "ente di decentramento regionale EDR" instead of provinces. Same goes for the autonomous region Sicily, which has "libero consorzio comunale" instead of provinces. For those we keep the old categories, eg. we keep the old category [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Province_of_Agrigento Category:Province of Agrigento] instead of creating a new Category "Libero consorzio comunale di Agrigento". Then there are many municipalities that have the name of the same-named province, such as [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Campobasso%2C_Campobasso Category:Campobasso, Campobasso]. This is not really an exception, but don't be confused by it. And finally there are the Metropolitan Cities that both qualify as city and as province. Previously they were provinces and got renamed to Metropolitan Cities between 2015 and 2021. There are 15 Metropolitan Cities, for a list see below. :Example for a comune in an EDR: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Arba%2C_Pordenone Category:Arba, Pordenone] :Example for a comune in a Libero consorzio comunale: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Menfi%2C_Agrigento Category:Menfi, Agrigento] :Example for a comune in an autonomous province: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Bolzano%2C_Bolzano_-_Alto_Adige Category:Bolzano, Bolzano - Alto Adige] :Example for a comune in a Metropolitan City: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Napoli%2C_Napoli Category:Napoli, Napoli] :Example for a comune in a province with the same name: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Agrigento%2C_Agrigento Category:Agrigento, Agrigento] =====Metropolitan Cities===== * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Bari Bari, Puglia (Bari, Apulia)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Bologna Bologna, Emilia-Romagna] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Cagliari Cagliari, Sardegna (Cagliari, Sardinia)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Catania Catania, Sicilia (Catania, Sicily)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Florence Firenze, Toscana (Florence, Tuscany)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Genoa Genova, Liguria (Genoa, Liguria)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Messina Messina, Sicilia (Messina, Sicily)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Milan Milano, Lombardia (Milan, Lombardy)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Naples Napoli, Campania (Naples, Campania)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Palermo Palermo, Sicilia (Palermo, Sicily)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Reggio_Calabria Reggio Calabria, Calabria] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Rome_Capital Roma Capitale, Lazio (Rome, Lazio)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Turin Torino, Piemonte (Turin, Piedmont)] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Sassari Sassari, Sardegna (Sassari, Sardinia)] [https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citt%C3%A0_metropolitana_di_Sassari Wikipedia] - '''Work in progress''' by [[Caruso-344|Caruso-344]] 19:16, 7 October 2023 (UTC) * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Metropolitan_City_of_Venice Venezia, Veneto (Venice, Veneto)] ====Categories for Frazioni==== The normal landing level for profiles should be the town or comune category, see [[Space:How_To_Create_Italy_Location_Categories#Category_Mapping|Category Mapping]]. So frazioni of comune usually wouldn't get their own category. There can be exceptions, if a WikiTree member would like to add many profiles to a frazione of a comune, or if there is a [[Project:One_Place_Studies|One Place Study]] for a frazione. When creating a frazione category for the Italy Project, it is also the '''frazione name first''' followed by the province the frazione is located in. {{Example|Example:[[Category:Pascelupo, Perugia]]}} It is important to add links from the frazione category to the comune category and from the comune category to all existing frazioni categories. This should be done in a short sentence below the category template. :Example for a frazione: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Pascelupo%2C_Perugia Category:Pascelupo, Perugia] :Example for a comune with frazioni: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Scheggia_e_Pascelupo%2C_Perugia Category:Scheggia_e_Pascelupo, Perugia] ====Categories for Merged Towns==== Similar as the frazioni, we only add categories for the "before" town/comune, if there are going to be many profiles in this category. For example, if a member is doing a One Place Study. For only few profiles, add them to the "today" town/comune category. When using before/after categories, an explanation must be added in the text below the CategoryInfoBox. Example for a "today" category, those lines are added after the "team" line: |succ1text= Timeline
|succ1prev1= Nicastro, Catanzaro
|succ1prev2= Sant'Eufemia Lamezia, Catanzaro
|succ1prev3= Sambiase, Catanzaro

The town and comune Lamezia Terme was built in 1968 out of the former municipalities Nicastro, Sambiase and Sant'Eufemia Lamezia. Example for a "before" category, those lines are added after the "team" line of the "category content" above: |succ1text= Timeline

Nicastro was a comune until 1968. Since then, together with Sambiase and Sant'Eufemia Lamezia, it builds the city of Lamezia Terme. ===Category Content=== The following information is required: * parent: add the name of the English Province category (see [[Space:Italy_Location_Categories#Category_Mapping|Category Mapping]] and see Italian Wikipedia for political structure) * parent 1: add the name of the Italian Province category * project: always add "Italy" * image: always add "European_Flags-50.png" * coordinates: only use decimal numers, eg. 38.85,16.35 not 38°50′50″N 16°20′30″E * wikidataID: copy the ID from the Wikipedia page of the municipality (on the left side is "Wikidata item" or in Italian "Elemento Wikidata", click on that and copy the ID from the URL or from the title) * profiles: always add "yes" * spacepage: always add the title of the region spage page, see [[Space:Italy_Regions_Team#Regions of Italy|Regions of Italy table]] * team: always add the title of the regions team page, see [[Space:Italy_Regions_Team|Regions of Italy - Teams]] * text below the template box: add 1-3 sentences about the comune, such as which province or region the comune belongs to, how big the territory or population is.

[[Category:Kenya]] ==Background== As of 2010, Kenya is divided into 47 semi-autonomous counties that are headed by governors. These '''47 counties''' form the first-order divisions of Kenya. They replace a previous system that divided the country into eight provinces with 46 districts plus Nairobi. The old districts became counties and Nairobi became a county as well. The new county system was implemented as of elections in 2013. The smallest administrative units in Kenya are called locations. Locations often coincide with electoral wards. Locations are usually named after their central villages or towns. Many larger towns consist of several locations. Each location has a chief, appointed by the state. ==Parent Category== The parent categories are '''Regions / Africa / Kenya.''' ==Mapping== The mapping of Kenyan place name categories is as follows: :'''Regions''' ::'''Africa''' [[Category: Africa]] :::'''Kenya''' [[Category: Kenya]] ::::'''County''' [[Category: , ]] :::::'''Place''' [[Category: , ]] ==Places== ===Counties=== The standard acceptable format for county name categories shall be: *'''[[Category:, ]]''' *Kenya has 47 counties (previously called districts).

Throughout the centuries, the Kenyan coast played host to many merchants and explorers. The coastal cities of Malindi and Mombasa were vital trading ports in Arab trade routes. The Portuguese arrived as early as 1498. The colonial history of Kenya dates from the establishment of a German Empire protectorate over the Sultan of Zanzibar's coastal possessions in 1885, followed by the arrival of the Imperial British East Africa Company in 1888. Germany handed its East African coastal holdings to Britain in 1890. From 1895 to 1920, Kenya was known as East Africa Protectorate (also known as British East Africa), occupying roughly the same area as present-day Kenya. From 1920 to 1963 Kenya was known as the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya, commonly known as British Kenya or British East Africa. It was part of the British Empire in Africa. Technically, the ''Colony of Kenya'' referred to the interior lands, while a 16 km (10 mi) coastal strip, nominally on lease from the Sultan of Zanzibar, was the ''Protectorate of Kenya'', but the two were controlled as a single administrative unit. The Colony and the Protectorate each came to an end on 12 December 1963. The United Kingdom ceded sovereignty over the Colony of Kenya and, under an agreement dated 8 October 1963, the Sultan agreed that simultaneous with independence for Kenya, the Sultan would cease to have sovereignty over the Protectorate of Kenya. None of the above appear as location suggestions on the drop down location menus (via FamilySearch). From 1963 to 2010 Kenya had eight provinces: Central Province, Coast Province, Eastern Province, Nairobi Province, North Eastern Province, Nyanza Province, Rift Valley Province and Western Province. '''Although Wikitree profiles must always reflect the correct language in the birth/marriage/death location, the present-day category is used regardless of historical time period'''. For example, someone born in the town of Thika in 1975 might show "Thika, Kiambu, Central Province, Kenya" in their birth location field, however, the category to be used would remain [[Category: Thika, Kiambu County]].

[[Category:Mauritius Project]] [[Category: Mauritius]] === Mauritian Place Categories === Mauritius was granted its independence from the United Kingdom in 1968. Previously the Indian Ocean island was under British rule from 1810, as a British Crown Colony, and before that was a French territory, called ''Isle de France'' (1715-1810). The Dutch East India Company made an expedition to Mauritius in 1598 and ruled then Dutch Mauritius for just over 100 years. The Dutch abandoned the island. The island was first discovered by the Arabs pre-1500. The islands were called Mascarenes (Réunion, Mauritius and Rodrigues) and in old Arab cartography, call them Dina Margabin, Dina Arobi, and Dina Moraze. The medieval Arab world called the Indian Ocean island region Waqwaq. ==Places== *Category:Mauritius **Category:Mauritius, Places ===Mauritian District Categories=== Mauritius has no established administrative provinces. Principal division of the island is into Districts. District categories are structured with district name, followed by the country name (i.e. [[Category: District, Mauritius]]). There are 8 Districts: *[[:Category:Mauritius]] **[[:Category:Mauritius, Places]] ***Category:'''Flacq District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Grand Port District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Moka District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Pamplemousses District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Plaines Wilhems District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Port Louis District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Riviere Noire District''', Mauritius ***Category:'''Savanne District''', Mauritius ''The Project may wish to consider the feasibility of some districts being 'landing level' categories.''

Whether there is a need, or not, for categorizing historic places is debatable. Mauritius is not recognized in the existing regional categorization structure, as an overseas Dutch, French or British territory. Perhaps it should be. *Category:Mauritius **[[:Category:Mauritius, Historic Places|Mauritius, Historic Places]] '''Historical Districts, Towns, and Settlements''' It is uncertain when the district structure was established on the island, so if one it to opt for Historic Places for Mauritius it may be appropriate for local towns to be named in the format [[Category:, ]].

[[Category:Categorization Help]] ==Scope== '''Migration''' is the movement by people from one place to another with the intentions of settling, permanently or temporarily, in a new location. People may migrate as individuals, in family units or in large groups (known as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_migration mass migration]).Wikipedia contributors. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_migration "Human migration."] Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, 16 Mar. 2018. Web. 21 Mar. 2018. For more clarification on the issue, [http://www.wikitree.com/g2g/123939/immigration-vs-emigration see this G2G, Immigration vs Emigration]. The migration covered under this scope is often over long distances and includes '''emigration''' from one country and '''immigration''' to another. This often includes, but is not limited to, topics around [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonization colonization], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaspora diaspora], economic migrants, or those who are [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asylum_seeker forced to move] as a result of conflict, human rights violations, violence, or to escape persecution. :An '''emigrant''' leaves from his or her homeland to live in another country. :An''' immigrant''' is a person who once resided somewhere else and now lives ''here'' (wherever 'here' is). :An easy way to remember what emigrant and immigrant mean is that emigrant and exit both start with 'e', while immigrant and into both start with 'i' (when you emigrate you ''exit''; when you immigrate you come ''into'' a country). :For example, a Swedish woman decides to move across the Atlantic Ocean. To herself, and to the country of Sweden, the woman is an ''emigrant'', someone who left Sweden (and went to America). To her new American neighbors, the woman is an immigrant, someone who came ''into'' America (and had been born in or living in Sweden). Choosing which term to use depends on perspective: whether she is being referred to by Swedes or by Americans.' :Notes: # While internal migration (within one geopolitical entity) is the dominant form globally (e.g. the general trend of movement from rural to urban areas)Wikipedia contributors. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_migration "Internal migration."] Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, 27 Jan. 2018. Web. 21 Mar. 2018., it is not covered under the scope of this categorization structure. For internal migration that is important to genealogical research,[[:Category:Regions|Category: Regions]] or [[Template:Nonmigrating_Ancestor|Template:Nonmigrating Ancestor]] should be used. # The temporary movement of people for the purpose of travel, tourism, pilgrimages, or for commuting purposes is not regarded as migration, in the absence of an intention to live and settle in the visited places. # [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomad Nomadic movements] are not normally regarded as migrations as there is no intention to settle in the new place and because the movement is generally seasonal. ---- ==Principles== Categories are used to group profiles in order to serve a genealogical purpose. Planning on certain category structures is sometimes necessary to keep global categories from becoming useless (too broad or too narrow). If everybody developed categories that they wanted, or that only they could use, we would lose the benefit of having global categories altogether. For notations, actions or characteristics that would only ever be of personal interest, [[:Help:Personal Categories|Personal Categories]], [[:Help:Stickers|Stickers]] or [[:Help:Templates|Templates]] should be used. Future needs and development should be considered when creating migration categories. Categories that may fall into multiple categories should be classified as accurately as possible, contain no self-usage (link a category to itself), and not introduce circular references (e.g. being both a parent of and a subcategory of another category). When the scope of a migration category falls outside of the specified structure herein, or it is unknown how to properly classify the category, it should be discussed with [[:Project:Categorization]] by [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/ask?cat=5 asking a question] in {{G2G}} using the [[Help:Tags|tags]] - {{Tag Link|categorization}} and {{Tag Link|migration}}. The names of all migration categories (especially the landing level migration categories expected to be placed on profiles) should contain enough information to clearly convey the scope and intent of that category, without needing the context of the parent categories it may be nested under. * '''[[Category: 1776 Immigration]]''' is an example of a category name that does not provide any meaningful information to a profile ''(i.e. where are they Emigrating from, and where are they Immigrating to?)''. * '''[[Category: Migrants from PlaceA to PlaceB]]''' clearly defines the migration path and no further context is needed to understand the intent of the landing category. Any other relevant details, such as time period, port of entry or vessel, can either be added to the biography, or through the use of other categories ''(see )''. ''Note: Since there are many possible migration categories, it should be noted that not all possible categories have been created, and will only be created when a need arises.'' ---- ==Structure== ===First Level=== :The first level is '''Migration'''.

[[Category:Philippines]] Part of [[Project:Global|Global Project]] ==The Philippines== The Philippines, officially the Republic of the Philippines, is an archipelagic country in Southeast Asia. In the western Pacific Ocean, it consists of 7,641 islands, with a total area of 300,000 square kilometers, which are broadly categorized in three main geographical divisions from north to south: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. === Philippines Location Category Structure=== The administrative divisions of the Philippines are as follows: *17 regions *82 provinces *146 cities *1488 municipalities *42,036 barangays (the smallest administrative division in the Philippines and is the native Filipino term for a village, district, or ward) '''Naming convention for regions:''' [[Category:Region, Philippines]] :Example: [[Category:Central Luzon, Philippines]] '''Naming convention for provinces:''' [[Category:Province, Region]] :Example: [[Category:Nueva Ecija, Central Luzon]] '''Naming convention for municipalities/cities:''' [[Category:City/municipality, Province]] :Example: [[Category:San Jose, Nueva Ecija]] ===Notes=== 1. Some highly urbanized cities, such as Taguig, have no province. The naming scheme would need to be adapted in such cases, to [[Category:City, Philippines]]. Examples: [[Category:Manila, Philippines]], [[Category:Taguig, Philippines]] 2. For our purposes, the baranguay units may be too small to use as a location category if it is a ward or district of a municipality. A village should probably be named in the same manner as a municipality or city.

[[Category:Yemen]] As of the end of 2004, Yemen was divided into twenty governorates (muhafazat – the latest being Raymah Governorate, which was created during 2004) plus one municipality called "Amanat Al-Asemah" (the latter containing the constitutional capital, Sana'a). An additional governorate (Soqatra Governorate) was created in December 2013 comprising Socotra Island (bottom-right corner of map), previously part of Hadramaut Governorate. The governorates are subdivided into 333 districts (muderiah), which are subdivided into 2,210 sub-districts, and then into 38,284 villages (as of 2001). {{Image|file=Yemeni_Administrative_Divisions.png |align=c |size=l |caption=Yemeni Governates }} Governates: # Saada # Al Jawf # Hadhramaut # Al Mahrah # Hajjah # 'Amran # Al Mahwit # Amanat Al Asimah (Sana'a City) # Sana'a # Ma'rib # Al Hudaydah # Raymah # Dhamar # Ibb # Dhale # Al Bayda # Shabwah # Taiz # Lahij # Abyan # Aden # Socotra In 2014, a constitutional panel decided to divide the country into six regions—four in the north, two in the south, and capital Sana'a outside of any region—creating a federalist model of governance.[296] This federal proposal was a contributing factor toward the Houthis' subsequent coup d'état against the government. == Sources == * [[Wikipedia:Yemen]]
