==How do I add categories to an article?==

*[[User:Trevj|Trevj's]] reply:

*:You can either:

*#manually add "<tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category:''Category name'']]</tt>" to articles via the usual editing process, as described at [[Help:Category]] (categories should be inserted below all article content but [[WP:ORDER|above any stub templates and interlanguage links]]); or

*#install and use the automated [[WP:HotCat|HotCat]] script.

:If adding manually, don't forget to make a note in the Edit summary!
