You can create any category as you like to, but you may want to [[Special:Categories|check out existing categories]] first, to avoid duplicates and nonsense categories. If a category has no category heading text already, it will be shown in red, like our example does.
[[Category:MyTest]]
=== Category names ===
Category names should be as short as possible (without using abbreviations, if possible). If a category represents an attribute (like e.g. "Physicians"), please use a singular category name, like "Physician", not the plural "Physicians". If a category represents a group of attributs, stop to think (or check out existing categories) whether it is better to use single subcategories for each attribute and assign these subcategories to another grouping category. Example: The category "Person by gender" groups categories like "Female", "Male", "Gender unknown", etc.
