How about we have sub-categories for the games, but the info on those pages will ''also'' be on the Petz category. And also, how about adding <nowiki>[[Category:Petz]]</nowiki> to all games in the Petz series? Because why should they all be in their sub-serieses and not in the main one? If they're in both, then that's problem solved, and people won't be as confused --[[User:Melon247|<font color="red">Me</font><font color="green">lon</font>]][[User_talk:Melon247|<font color="orange">2</font><font color="purple">4</font><font color="blue">7</font>]] 12:52, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

:Currently we only put the most immediate series on games, because the series is in turn picked up by the parent series. I'm for keeping the sub-series separate from the Petz category because I think it's more helpful to users who like the game they're playing and want to find another one most like it. As for the information, a one to two sentence blurb on the Petz page should be sufficient, while the bulk of the information (if there ever is any) should go on the individual sub-series category pages. That's what makes most sense to me anyway. - [[User:Najzere|'''naj''']][[User_talk:Najzere|<font color="green">zere</font>]] 15:45, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

== Categories ==
With the games that are basically under "other" in the Petz series or similar, should we just put the series as Petz? For example, under the Wanted Categories bit I saw a Monkeyz category. There are two games in it; [[Petz: Monkey Madness]] and [[Petz: Crazy Monkeyz]]. The only page that links to it is the page it's on ([[Petz: Monkey Madness]]). Also there are other games such as Bunnyz (currently in the Petz category anyway) and Petz: Vet which don't go in their own series since they're the only games that would be in there. {{User:Melon247/My sig}} 09:36, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
:[[:Category:Mario]] does it, so why not Petz. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 01:23, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
::Should we have all the games here or just the ones that don't fit under Dogz, Catz, Hamsterz, etc.? I mean, we could easily just add Category:Petz to the Petz template (in an includeonly tag, I should think). {{User:Melon247/My sig}} 12:53, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
:::It's best how they are right now with games in the most specific category. It's redundant to categorize a game by its series and by its series' parent series. - [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 15:16, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
== Petz Category split ==
Was the PC Petz category decided upon or created?  If a decision was made, the category should be set up and links created, even if we don't have the actual games that belong. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 01:57, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
