I'm not sure what Spike and the rest of the community thinks about this, but I feel that some pages have too many categories. I know that categories are good for categorisation, but (e.g.) looking at the MOAB page, it has too many categories (three rows), despite all of them being relevant. I would like to propose that in the future, categories for new games should only be added to the pages that are exclusive. For example, in cases like BTD4 and BTD4E, the BTD4E category should only be added to whatever is exclusive to BTD4E (e.g. Sandy Spiral, etc.) The same goes for BTD5D/B/iOS, etc.

A second reason why I'm thinking of this change is: if people come to the wiki looking for BTD5D (or BTD5B/iOS) exclusive content, they would see a whole list of upgrades and towers that are normally in BTD5. Yes, this is right. However, they would have to literally look through all the pages in that category to find what they are looking for.

However, I also think that this may not be a good solution from other points of view. For example, people could become confused, that a particular category exists on the BFB page but not the MOAB page, they might think that MOABs are not in that game while BFBs are, etc.

Please discuss.
