Where to even begin? I mean, there's at least equal amounts wonkiness and valid organization going on with the categories across the site. Let's start with D1.

There's Category:Classes, which contains 'D# Classes' for 2, 3, 4, D2, also 'no number' which is really 1/HOD, and 'HOD Monsters'. "no-number" contains all the D1 Humanoid classes; all the D1 Monsters are also tagged here. 'HOD Monsters' contains all the D1 Monsters. Monsters have 2 tags, each of which are 'equal depth' and also under a single tag.

So also, why does Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness_Classes exist, as a subcat of "Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness"? I guess I see the original logic... Someone made all possible "Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness_Whatever".... and then at some other point in time, someone made "Category: Disgaea Classes", and somehow CDC got used instead of CDHODC.

But... *rub face* ok, I had a bunch of 'what about this' ideas, and... they all got scrapped. Looking at the "Category:Classes > D # Classes", that given category is supposed to be a catch-all for ANYTHING resembling a 'class' in those games, even the Special classes and the, idk, enemy bosses or whatever. D2, D3, D4 do not have separate 'monster' categories, or humanoid either. ...ok crappy category-tree time.


 * Category:Classes
 * dd Category:Disgaea Classes - intended to be a catch-all for ANY class, in D1. Hum, Mon, Story, Special, everything. I suggest: take everything in here, tag them with "Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness_Classes" instead, then delete "Category:Disgaea Classes".
 * dd Category:Disgaea: Hour of Darkness Monsters‎ - delete this.
 * TT "Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness_Classes" - place this cat under cat:classes.


 * Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness
 * Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness_Classes - yes, this already exists as a subcat here, and yes it's the same as I mentioned right above. Very little is tagged with this already.
 * dd Category:Disgaea: Hour of Darkness Monsters‎ - yes it's the same cat that's already subcatted under cat:classes.

You see what I mean? so we should decide... T2Cing/pic-fixing/DMAC-checking is a good time to make sure all the categories are right. I'm in favor of 'fewer categories' where it makes sense, which it does here. So delete the monster cat. Tag everything currently under 'D_C' into Category:Disgaea:_Hour_of_Darkness_Classes and delete D_C. If this sounds like a good idea, let me know what you think, and I'll make sure the Style Guide gets updated accordingly.
