New category requests thread
NOTE: If the mods don't believe this is a good idea, then please delete this thread.
I'm creating this thread because this way we have a centralized location for users of the wiki to request new Category pages, which to my knowledge only Moderators on the wiki have the power to create. Since I'm first up, I'd like to request that a Category page for the author Cormac McCarthy be created, like the pages already made for the late great authors Elmore Leonard and Tom Clancy. Cormac McCarthy already has a number of pages on the wiki based on his written works (being The Counselor, The Road, All the Pretty Horses, and of course, his blockbuster No Country for Old Men). I'm sure that the acclaim he's achieved means that more of his works featuring firearms will be adapted soon (though they should hurry; at 80 years of age he isn't apt to last much longer). |

What was the final ruling on the threshold for writers? I thought it was ten.

I would like to think that the significance of the author and his/her written works has some work to play, rather than purely on the number of works s/he published. If Cormac McCarthy keeled over dead back in 2012, I'm sure his works would still be considered significant today.
Anyway, I'd like to know what it would take to make a Disambiguation page. Do you need moderator privileges to do that? I'd like to make one for Silent Hill because one could mean either the first game in the series, or the first movie, or the category. A disambiguation page could go some way towards correcting this. |

As for the last Category I suggested, I recently got my hands on a DVD copy of A Scanner, Darkly and will be making an entry for that film soon. Should help to fill out the Philip K. Dick category. And what about creating categories for game series (such as the Time Crisis game series, which has 3 entries on this wiki so far)? That still requires moderator privileges, right? Yes, but will search queries for "Silent Hill" actually be redirected to the new disambiguation page after it is created? |

I'll take care of the redirects, you can fill the page.
