* '''Places''' should have location categories. For example, [[Golden Oak Library]] has a category denoting its in Ponyville and [[Ponyville]] has a category denoting its in [[Equestria]]
==Real life subjects==
===Staff===
Staff pages are primarily written to be about their involvement and 'relationship' with the ''[[My Little Pony]]'' franchise and to a lesser extent, fanbase. They are not intended to be comprehensive biographies of their entire life and times. A brief write-up on their early lives, career, education and influences can and should of course be given but it should be that, brief. See [[Kelly Sheridan]] or [[Heather Breckel]] for examples of staff pages written to these policies.
Staff are generally credited under the names that are listed as in the media they are credited under, however, there are of course exceptions to that rule. Namely, some staff no longer identify with the names they were credited under, such as transgender or non-binary staff, such as [[Lex Heule]], who was credited under their deadname. Other staff, such as [[Toni Kuusisto]] have had their name misspelled, always use proper spelling if possible, though leave a note about the typo.
Pages for creative staff should generally have a 'selected filmography/discography/bibliography/gameography' section which goes over some of their more noteworthy roles or works, especially if that work has other ''My Little Pony'' creators attached to it.
===Real-life country pages===
We allow for pages regarding real-life countries if ''My Little Pony'' has been released there or if that country was referenced in the franchises media. For the former, write the article going over naming changes, media changes, toy releases and dubbing (and other useful and educational info you can find) '''not''' as an actual historic overview of the nation. Seriously, we had someone add the entire history of the Soviet Union to our page for [[Russia]] before. Historic events are not particularly relevant for pages unless that historic event somehow ties into ''My Little Pony'', such as how the death of {{W|Bhumibol Adulyadej}} derailed the run of ''[[My Little Pony Musical: Rainbow Rocks]]''.
