	For families, the standard I have been using is that there need to be roughly four or more prominent members of the family to get a category. Some families (eg Braun) don't have that many in the Wiki yet because I haven't yet added them. I've also added families as subcategories to the relevant race.

	I'd be interested to hear what you think about these ideas/actions, particularly some of the concerns I mention with Regional, Guild, and Clan events. I'm not opposed to making those categories, but I think we need to be careful in setting guidelines for how they are used.

			==Categories==
			I think most of the categories you listed are good ideas. The following are definitely needed:
			*Category:Gorbesh War
			*Category:Sorrow War
			*Category:Outcast Wars
			*Category:Pirate Events
			I'm a little leery about some of them because of issues with overlap (Mirror Wraith Prophesy was, technically, an MM event, but it involved everybody. Similarly, the pirates stuff is mostly a Qi thing, but it has spilled over into every province):
			*Category:Regional Events
			*Category:Guild Events
			*Category:Clan Events
			Finally, I think some things are fine so long as we set some standards for what does/doesn't go into them:
			*Category:Major GMPCs
			*Category:Before Lanival (I don't like this category very much, actually)

			I've already begun using the GMPCs category as you described, but there remain some pages I have not yet categorized according to this scheme.

			Also, I've created a few fairly broad categories that you may find useful:
			*Category:Alive (for presently active or potentially active characters)
			*Category:Dead (for characters for which there is no reasonable expectation they will ever be in the previous category)
			*Category:Ferdahl (ruler of Ilithi)
			*Category:Emperor (ruler of the Seven Starred Empire)
			*Category:Theren (family)
			*Category:Crowther (family)
			*Category:Braun (family)

			For families, the standard I have been using is that there need to be roughly four or more prominent members of the family to get a category. Some families (eg Braun) don't have that many in the Wiki yet because I haven't yet added them. I've also added families as subcategories to the relevant race.
