This page lists all categories and sub-categories on SGUTranscripts.org.


I've initially created this page to put forward ideas on categories. Please put any feedback in the discussion page (see tab at top left), and we can amend this page accordingly.
== Content Categories ==
 
[[:Category:Content categories|Content categories]] are used to identify the '''content''' of episode transcripts. It should be noted that none of these categories are mutually exclusive.
 
=== Topics ===
The following topic categories are based on those used in the [http://theness.com/roguesgallery/ Rogues Gallery] at the NESS. This means that if we're unsure how to categorize items, we can see how they've done it, as they've probably blogged about the item in question.
