Here at Disney Infinity WIki, we administrators try not to rule with an iron fist. However, the one thing we have had more problems with than anything else is categories. Our categories have been a source of much confusion among our users. For this reason, we have created this, the category usage guidelines page. This page details the proper usage of each one of our categories. The proper use for each category is also outlined on the page for the category itself, which are also linked to here on this page.
Thank you,
The Disney Infinity Wiki Administrative Team.
