Category:Genres
- The main article for this category is Genre.
See also Category:Media and formats, which reflects more of the media and format ("film", "book"; "short", "long"; "serial"; "graphic novel"); "genre" by contrast is more about the subject of the work.
Categorization notes:
Classes of fictional works characterized by particular conventions or criteria particular to that class. (Fairly circular, I know.) For this wiki, SF includes all manner of sf-related genres and subgenres. Reference information about non-SFnal genres will also be included as relevant.
Here, include articles on particular genres. Within subcategories by genre name, include (a) the article that defines and discusses the genre; (b) articles on panels or other discussions about the genre; and (c) a subcategory of "Works of X genre", e.g., "Category:Works of horror".
Do not diffuse articles and subcategories into subcategories, but redundantly categorize them. Category:Genres should be an alphabetical index of all genres and genre subcategories. Genres should also be categorized within the genre category tree:
