 * This is of the utmost importance. If there's no consensus on naming conventions we are going to find ourselves in a right mess with this wiki, in less than a week or two. So PLEASE follow these guidlines.
 * When adding a wiki-link to a name (musician, influence, ...), the form should be <nowiki>[[Firstname Lastname]]</nowiki>. When adding a wiki-link to a title (album, book, ...) which starts with an article ("the", "an"), the form should be <nowiki>[[The Title]]</nowiki>, NOT <nowiki>[[Title, The]]</nowiki>. Example: <nowiki>[[The Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life]]</nowiki>. Same goes for tracks: a wiki-link to a track like "The Dangerous Kitchen" should be listed as <nowiki>[[The Dangerous Kitchen]]</nowiki>.
-* '''NOTE when categorizing an article for a person:''' To link an article up to a category, in order to preserve a sensible alphabetical listing on the category page, tagging is like this: <nowiki>[[Category:Musicians|Willis, Ike]]</nowiki>. This will list Ike Willis under W instead of I.
+* '''NOTE when categorizing an article for a person:''' To link an article up to a category, in order to preserve a sensible alphabetical listing on the category page, tagging is like this: <nowiki>[[Category:Musicians|Willis, Ike]]</nowiki>. This will list Ike Willis under the letter W instead of the letter I on the Musicians category page.
 * Watch out for tracks that have the same name as an album (for instance "The Man From Utopia"). In this case, tag the link to the TRACK as follows: <nowiki>[[The Man From Utopia (The Track)]]</nowiki> (note space and "The Track" between brackets); the album itself can still be linked to as <nowiki>[[The Man From Utopia]]</nowiki>.
 * Similarly to allow default syntax for albums to remain untouched:

@@ Line 34: / Line 34: @@
 ** Versions of the album (original releases vs re-releases)
 ** Don't worry if you can't fill out ALL of this information. Just provide these 6 headers, so that others can add to it later. For instance, you might want to add tracknames, without having a clue as to the players, album background or CC (happens to me all the time, heheh). In that case, just create all the headers, and add your information underneath the "About The Album" header.
-* [[:Category:Tracks|Track pages]]: always tag the page as follows: <nowiki>[[Category:Discography]] [[Category:Tracks]]</nowiki>
+* [[:Category:Tracks|Track pages]]: always tag the page as follows: <nowiki>[[Category:Tracks]]</nowiki>
 * [[:Category:Influences|Influences]]: always tag the page as follows: <nowiki>[[Category:Influences]]</nowiki>
