I have been quite specific with what I ask when it comes to categories, yet, more unrelated categories have to be dealt with on my behalf. I was supposed to have produced a category guide, but due to a grim frustration, my work was never completed. I know categories are required for badges, but that is all in the name of achieving progress within the Wiki, and if in that regard categories are already completed, ultimately further work towards them is not required or asked for.

The amount of categories and category pages must be minimised for the simplest and most efficient navigation. It has been decided categories will not be tag based and will only work as direct relations. Categories for most pages will work like this:

- Universal "Battle Bears" category (there are exceptions, although you're unlikely to pick up on them).

- Categories of the games involving the article. "Battle Bears" followed by the game, such as Royale, Zero, Comics, -1, Zombies or Backpack.

- The article's primary classification. For many pages, there will only be these first three categories. This third one would include things such as "Oliver" for his weapons in games other than Royale, "Enemies" for the foes among the different games etc.

+ Royale pages have been isolated from other games, and uses an expanded system:

-- Battle Bears

-- Battle Bears Royale

-- Type, either (Weapons (take note this ONLY applies to Royale weapons), Skins, Specials, Equipment, Stages, BBR Game Modes, Pick Ups, Classes, Bundle Deals)

--- Class of item's belonging, either (Soldier, Heavy, Huggable, Demolition, Sniper, Chub Scout, Engineer (do NOT add the character name))

If a weapon, the weapon type, either (Primary, Secondary, Melee)

- If a primary or secondary, the weapon classification, either (Automatic, Shotgun, Explosives, Ability, Saboteur)

--- If a Christmas or Halloween skin (Exclusive)

If a default (Default)

Other than the default weapons, no article should pass beyond six categories. If you noticed most pages, there's usually only three or four categories, and are rather precise with what the article is about. If you have any questions, please ask before adding categories. I do not want to have to clean up articles constantly, and notably categories, because I'm looking at introducing new badges that rely on the categories of each page to work correctly and efficiently. If you want more badges, please be more regulated with adding categories. I hope you can understand my call for this.
