Category talk:Tutorials

This category seems to be underused right now, and I'd like to bring some articles from Gameplay and Terminology over here, since some of them would certainly qualify as being tutorialish, but what about the articles which are generally encyclopedic (that is, they're explaining a term, or what have you), but also contain significant tutorial elements? I'm looking at things like Event here; should I add the article to the tutorial category, or should I strip out the "How to Organize Events" part into a new page, and give that the category tag? I'm just looking for a way to add some more meat to the tutorials section without making it bloated and unnavigatable. :/ What do people think? --Emufarmers 18:47, 8 May 2006 (PDT)

Yarr? This might result in a lot of articles being split, or at least recategorized, so I was hoping for a second opinion on what to do before I rush headlong into it. --Emufarmers 19:08, 9 May 2006 (PDT)

I don't think splitting or re-categorizing is really necessary right now. Articles like Avatar are already categorized both under terminology and tutorial; there's no reason the articles that you're looking at can't be double categorized as well. If both parts to the original article start to become too large, then we can look at splitting.--Fiddler 19:26, 9 May 2006 (PDT)

Fair enough. One thing, though: Is something being a "strategy" piece (drinking, for instance; or most of the puzzle articles for that matter) qualify it as a tutorial? Could always have a category for strategy, or is the distinction not really great enough to bother? --Emufarmers 19:44, 9 May 2006 (PDT)
