New page

I'm not sure why, but a lot of these videos are defaulting to the category Fan Videos as well as the subcategory that they are in. Is there a way we can make it so that they dont go in Fan Videos if they are in a subcategory of Fan Videos? Like... the first blogs in TheLadyLazarus's "Cassie" series.. should really only go in "TheLadyLazarus's Blogs" category. Makes things more organized... Please let me know if this is possible! --[[User:Zoey|Zoey]] 17:35, 26 April 2007 (CDT)

	:::::Ahh, not enough sleep.. that did not make sense to me. Basically (and maybe this is what you said, I am confused...) I thought each fan video series should have a subcategory within "Fan Videos" and videos should be auto. filtered to those categories.. but videos without categories should just go directly into "Fan Videos". That way it would be really easy for someone looking to find out info on all the fanfic series we have available.. or a specific series. Maybe we could even have the non-"normal" templates filter into there too? Bah, I'm confusing myself slightly.. please let me know if this makes sense... --[[User:Zoey\|Zoey]] 19:55, 26 April 2007 (CDT)		:::::Ahh, not enough sleep.. that did not make sense to me.

All of the blogs should automatically be placed in the correct subcategories. Do we even have any that should be in the top category [[:Category:Fan videos]]?--[[User:Jonpro\|Jonpro]] 20:56, 26 April 2007 (CDT)

	::::Hmmm, we could add a "category" parameter to {{tl\|Unofficial blog}} that takes the category that the video should be in. If none is provided, then it will default to [[:Category:Fan videos]].
