Pages should be classified under their most relevant subcategory or subcategories. Supercategories would be populated only by subcategories, and will be kept as empty as possible.

Singers should be classified by language and discipline using the format <mando/canto> <discipline>

• List of disciplines (all under the supercategory "artist"):

singer (sings, doesn't play)

rapper (raps, doesn't sing)

instrumentalist (plays, doesn't sing)

songwriter (writes and/or composes)

singer-songwriter (sings, writes, and plays his/her own songs)

Notes: Out of all the disciplines, please put an artist into the ONE that fits best. If an artist has his/her own albums, and has written music either for him/herself or for others, he/she is a singer-songwriter. A minimum of five category members should be present before the category is created.

Place articles in thebolded categories.

C-pop

Mandopop artists -> create "List of Mandopop artists"

Mandopop singers - supercategory: Mandarin-language singers

(Mandopop instrumentalists)

The Nationality/Discipline category tree is a complete mess. Having genders Format: <nationality> <discipline>

Here, instead of "artist," the main term is "musician." Populate the category that best fits the type of artist being profiled. If an artist is a singer-songwriter, populate BOTH <nationality> singer and <nationality> singer-songwriter. Don't fill in genders; I personally feel they're a bit absurd.

Nationality/gender/discipline (NGD) treeHow to populate, using Taiwan as an example:

Taiwanese musicians

Taiwanese singers

Taiwanese singer-songwriters

(Taiwanese rappers)

Taiwanese musical groups

Try to pick as specific a category as possible.

• Move all artists inCategory:Cantopop toCategory:Cantopop artists. The only pages that should remain inCategory:Cantopop are award organizations, and songs/items that contribute greatly to the evolution of Cantopop.

• Wikipedia categorization by topic
