The usual place to add it is at the bottom of the page. </p><p>To link a category page within a page as a normal wiki link (without adding the page to the category), prefix the link name with a colon.

(At least in MediaWiki 1.18.2) if a category is a subcategory of more than one parent, both hierarchies will be listed, but the tagged category will be stripped off all but one of these. This creates the potential for what appear to be duplicate entries if a category with multiple parents <i>and</i> one of its parents are both tagged on a page. For example suppose Maryanne is a subcategory of both Mary and Anne. If a page tags categories Maryanne and Anne then the Category breadcrumbs will show </p> <pre>Anne Anne Mary -> Maryanne </pre> <p>"Anne" appears to be duplicated, but what is meant is </p> <pre>Anne Anne -> Maryanne Mary -> Maryanne </pre> <p>This is a bug, and has been reported in <a href="https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T35614" class="extiw" title="phab:T35614">phab:T35614</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Sort_key" data-mw-thread-id="h-Sort_key-Adding_a_page_to_a_category"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Sort_key-Adding_a_page_to_a_category"></span>Sort key<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Sort_key-Adding_a_page_to_a_category"></span></h3></div> <p>By default, a page is sorted within a category under the first letter of its name — <i>without the namespace</i>. Also, MediaWiki groups accented characters separately from their unaccented version, so pages starting by À, Á, Ä, will be listed under separate headings, instead of under heading A. (If you have shell access, these defaults can be changed using <code><a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgCategoryCollation" title="Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgCategoryCollation">$wgCategoryCollation</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Manual:$wgCategoryCollation" title="Manual:$wgCategoryCollation"> </a></span></code>.) </p><p>A <i>sort key</i> specifies under which letter heading, and where in the category list, the page will appear. </p><p>There are two ways in which you can customise the category sortkey: </p> <ul><li>Generically, for all categories, by adding the <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic_words#DEFAULTSORT" title="Special:MyLanguage/Help:Magic words">DEFAULTSORT</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Help:Magic_words#DEFAULTSORT" title="Help:Magic words"> </a></span> magic word on the page.</li> <li>On an individual 'per category' basis, by placing the value inside the tag after a pipe character. For example, the tag below will add the page under heading "S".</li></ul> <pre>[[Category:<i><b>Name</b></i>|<i><b>Sort</b></i>]] </pre> <p>Whether or not sort keys are case-sensitive depends on your configuration settings. The order of the sections within a category follows the Unicode sort order. The sort key does not change the page title displayed in the category. </p><p>Spaces and other characters are perfectly valid. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Creating_a_category_page" data-mw-thread-id="h-Creating_a_category_page"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Creating_a_category_page"></span>Creating a category page<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Creating_a_category_page"></span></h2><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Creating_a_category_page","replies":[]}}--></div> <p>Categories exist even if their page has not been created, but these categories are isolated from others and serve little purpose for organisation or navigation. </p><p>A category is created by creating a page in the <i><b>Category:</b></i> namespace. A category page can be created the same way as other wiki pages (see <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Starting_a_new_page" title="Special:MyLanguage/Help:Starting a new page">Help:Starting a new page</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Help:Starting_a_new_page" title="Help:Starting a new page"> </a></span>); just add "<code>Category:</code>" before the page title. </p><p>To avoid extra work, try searching within your wiki before creating a new category. The list of all categories can be found in "Special pages" in the "tools" box of the <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Navigation#Sidebar" title="Special:MyLanguage/Help:Navigation">sidebar</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Managing_the_category_hierarchy" data-mw-thread-id="h-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"></span>Managing the category hierarchy<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"></span></h2><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Managing_the_category_hierarchy","replies":["h-Category_tree-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"]}}--></div> <p>Categories may belong to other categories in a hierarchy. Since category pages are much like any other page, a Category tag may be added to the bottom of a category page. </p><p>It is a good idea to organise all categories into a hierarchy with a single top level category. The category structure can take the form of a tree with separate branches, but more often will have a graph structure. Generally, there should be a contiguous chain of parent-child links between each category and the top level category. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Category_tree" data-mw-thread-id="h-Category_tree-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Category_tree-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"></span>Category tree<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Category_tree-Managing_the_category_hierarchy"></span></h3></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r6353907">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic;padding-bottom:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.4em;border-bottom:1px solid #ccc}.mw-parser-output .hatnote.no-border{border-bottom:none}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote relarticle mainarticle">Main page: <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CategoryTree#Usage" title="Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CategoryTree">CategoryTree extension manual</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree#Usage" title="Extension:CategoryTree"> </a></span></div> <p>Since MediaWiki 1.31, <a href="/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CategoryTree" title="Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CategoryTree">CategoryTree</a><span style="display:none"><a href="/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree" title="Extension:CategoryTree"> </a></span> extension is packaged by default, allowing <a href="/wiki/Special:CategoryTree" title="Special:CategoryTree">Special:CategoryTree</a> and <code class="mw-highlight" style="white-space:nowrap"><span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">categorytree</span><span class="p">></span></code> to provide a tree-like structure display for the categories. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Hidden_categories" data-mw-thread-id="h-Hidden_categories"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Hidden_categories"></span>Hidden categories<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Hidden_categories"></span></h2><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Hidden_categories","replies":[]}}--></div> <p>The categories that a page is in are normally listed at the bottom of the page.
