:Ok, lets see if I can help you. It appears you know (a bit?) of HTML, but wikicode is not HTML, even though *some* HTML constructs are allowed (such as <nowiki><br></nowiki>). But in regards to categories, you use the wiki-link style <code><nowiki>[[pagename]]</nowiki></code> to link to it, *but* you specify the WORD "Category" first, then a colon. Such taht Guild Leaders would be "<nowiki>[[Category:Guild Leaders]]</nowiki>" the thing with categories, is if they are specified on a page, the page will be added to the category, and MediaWiki will do all that magical formatting itself. So you don't need to do the div, id, or any of that.

Categorization

Thank you for your entry of Nebela. I went ahead and corrected the categories. In order to add a page to a category, you put in [[Category:Guild Leaders]], for example. This would put the page in the Category:Guild Leaders. Take a look at what I did to Nebela to see other examples.

In order to put in a link on a page to a category, just put a colon before Category. Example: [[:Category:Guild Leaders]]

Let me know if you have any questions.
