− | ==Consolidating similar subject within a category==
| |
− |
| |
− | Camshaft article
| |
− |
| |
− | There's already a couple pages pertaining to some part of camshafts ([[Cam and compression ratio compatibility]] and [[Camshaft install tips and tricks]]) under the 'Engine' category.
| |
− |
| |
− | I want to do an article with an overview of how the camshaft works, along info on the different types of cams and why they came to be, etc.
| |
− |
| |
− | My question is, should this be a new category like what was done with 'Quadrajet carburetor', or should it be a page in 'Engine' like the two pages I mentioned above? My concern is creating too many categories.
| |
− |
| |
− | Or is there a way to use a bullet list in the different categories, i.e.:
| |
− |
| |
− | (Engine category, under "C")
| |
− | *Camshaft page (either as a page containing the info I mentioned above like 'How the cam works', 'Types of cams', etc., or just used as a title with the actual pages below this not-linked title)
| |
− | **Cam and compression ratio compatibility page
| |
− | **Camshaft install tips and tricks page
| |
− | **Et cetera?
| |
− |
| |
− | There are other instances where this could put pages on a similar subject together under a heading- like the RPO codes we talked about earlier:
| |
− |
| |
− | *RPO codes (containing an overview and possibly other info)
| |
− | **GM RPO build codes
| |
− | **General Motors build codes
| |
− | **More GM RPO codes
| |
− |
| |
− | There are actually many subjects that could be done this way like firing orders, valve train components, reciprocating assembly components, etc.
| |
− |
| |
− | I would have tried this to see what it looked like and how it performed, but I seem to be unable to edit the list of pages in the categories like 'Engine'.
