I want to launch "Witch Works", where a witch or witchcraft plays an important role in a work. I know tropes go to the Trope Workshop, but this isn't quite a trope (although you can probably argue that having a work centered around witches is a trope). Rather, it's there to document the existence of witchcraft within any work, so I believe it is a category instead of a trope.

Forgot the admin ping.

Launching a category is easy - add it to one of the pages that you want listed in the category. That will create a redlink that you can click on and edit the page.
The boilerplate dropdown has "Category page" as an option, near the end - select that before you type anything into the edit box and you'll get the minimum that you need for a category page. You can delete the {{main|{{PAGENAME}}}} text since this won't be a category for an existing trope or work page.
Once you've saved off the new category, it's just a matter of adding it to other pages.
Minor correction: The boilerplate is called "Index page". (Because the system was set up at the very beginning of ATT, and for some reason we were still thinking in TVT terminology instead of just embracing the MediaWiki terminology.)
You can also create a category page with the fourth prompt on the ATT Page Creator.
LT, we corrected that name years ago. See File:Screenshot 2023-02-06 082051.gif if it doesn't show up here.
Then we have two entries on the menu, because the second entry on that dropdown, right under Trope Workshop Page, is "index page", which I use at least once a week. I wasn't even aware of this one.
Do I need to consult with other members of the community before launching a category?
I don't see why. Anybody can make a list.
But if you want to, go ahead.
