	:RomanceWiki, I did get your message and I would not have thought to use Cabin Romance for Snowbound -- especially since some of the Regencies I have where they are snowbound, the characters are not in a cabin.

		+	== Linking to specific title Series by the Numbers page ==
		+	RomanceWiki -- I've been working on Maura Seger's pseudonyms and I'm baffled by the one title on the [[Laura Michaels]] page I filled in. [[Tune in Tomorrow]] is a [[Meteor Kismet]] and I've filled out that page, but the link on the [[Kismet By The Numbers]] page is not linking to the book page I created. Please direct me on how I should edit either the Book page or the series page to get the linking corrected. Thanks -- [[User: Bluestocking\|Bluestocking]] 20:30, 23 March 2009 (Central)

	:In case Romancewiki does not get back to you right away, I will pitch in with my two cents worth. You can always add a category on a page. It shows up as red and will be waiting to be "created" as a new category, and it is okay to leave it like this for a bit to see what other people think of the category. If it seems to be a category that others use, or that makes sense, then you or someone (like me) can create the category page. I am not sure if you have looked at the hierarchy of categories in the Help section here ([[RomanceWiki:Category Index]]). I don't really see a "subject" type of category ''per se'', but "snowbound" would fit under "location" and "Companion" would be a type of character occupation, right? There are also things listed under "plot devices" that might include these types of categories ("Plot devices being used for a broad category of things like themes, etc.). If you create a new category, it is good to categorize that category so that it is easily found in this hierarchy. Another thing we want to avoid is a bunch of duplicate categories like vampire, vampires, vampyres, vampyre, blood-suckers - you get the idea. I am not a librarian, nor do I play one on the wiki, so if you want to make suggestions about the category structure, please feel free to do so. When I go in to clean up the categories every once in awhile, I try to make sure the category is categorized and to get rid of duplicate categories. --[[User:Kay T\|Kay T]] 00:09, 14 March 2009 (UTC)		:In case Romancewiki does not get back to you right away, I will pitch in with my two cents worth.

	I've been adding to the wiki now for about a month and I have been using the categories list to add subject categories to my entries. Well, my inner librarian is coming out because I look for certain terms to describe my books and they are not on the list -- for example "Snowbound" or "Companion" (not all regency heroines that work are governesses) or "Inheritance" and others. Is there some protocol to add terms to the categories list?

 ::::Hi, I have restored the [[Warner]] page because I think it should be kept for historical reasons. No way a [[Warner Forever]] book of April 2007 - and accordingly labelled on the spine - is going to change into a [[Grand Central Publishing]] '''Forever''' just because the owner renamed its imprint and Amazon lists it that way. I'll stick to whatever is written on the book itself - front cover, spine or back cover. It is so much easier than to find out which corporation now owns the [[Publishers|Publisher]], [[Imprint|imprint]] or [[Series|series]]. I has a similar problem with the ever changing names of some [[Mills and Boon|Mills & Boon]] imprints and hopefully found a good way to work around it.
