User blog:Jade Encrusted Bugs/Uneccesary categories

Hey there. As one of the fandom wiki's admins I want to give a heads up. While I had made a similar post a while ago, the same issue has cropped up again, specifically regarding the following uneeded categories: And likely even more. It's rather late in my timezone (and it happens to be my birthday) so I may not be clearing everything on the spot for sleep and outing-related reasons, but if you notice that I'm editing categories at any one point, this is the reason why.
 * Girls
 * Female OCs
 * Original Character
 * Female
 * Male
 * Male OCs
 * Boys

To tag your male OCs as male, only use the Males category. For female OCs go only use the Females category. To tag your OC as a character in general, only use the Characters category.

I also feel like the sub-categories in the Characters section are getting a little numerous, which is likely the reason why people have been tagging their OCs uncorrectly. A lot of them seen rather unneccesary as well to be honest. Perhaps it's just me, and I don't mean to sound rude or overbearing, but is there honestly reason to tag an OC page as anything other than the character's gender, the story they came from, their story's author (optional), their alignment, and their creator's username/their creator's OC category?

On one last note, since not all characters are and identify as strictly male or female, I propose the usage of a Non Binary category for OCs whose gender identities don't quite fit neatly into the gender binary. I want this to be an inclusive wikia and it would be great if this were a thing.
