What is the official consensus on "List of" pages like [[List of Super Mario World hacks]] or [[List of EarthBound utilities]]? Should these be done by categories instead, or is this way okay? --[[User:Mr. Tenda|Mr. Tenda]] 23:11, 2 November 2005 (EST)

:I have feeling that categories would tend to work better for those, but "List of" pages allow you to "request" a page by linking to it. Where there are "List of" pages, there should almost definitely be a corresponding category, but it may be okay to have both. Maybe check how Wikipedia handles it? --[[User:AnyoneEB|AnyoneEB]] 08:13, 4 November 2005 (EST)

Are there any naming conventions for hack pages? Should Super_Mario_Odyssey_Demo be prefixed with 'Hack' or the game name? --Labmaster Talk 02:01, 26 Oct 2005 (EDT)

The convention so far has been to just give it a regular name page, and put it in the Game's category...perhaps this should change.--Gau 03:42, 26 Oct 2005 (EDT)

"List of" pages

What is the official consensus on "List of" pages like List of Super Mario World hacks or List of EarthBound utilities? Should these be done by categories instead, or is this way okay? --Mr. Tenda 23:11, 2 November 2005 (EST)

I have feeling that categories would tend to work better for those, but "List of" pages allow you to "request" a page by linking to it. Where there are "List of" pages, there should almost definitely be a corresponding category, but it may be okay to have both.
