In some cases, you'll need to categorize the redirect. In this case, you'll put categories below the redirect just like you do on the game main page. Redirects to main game pages only need categories if the game was released under that name by different companies, for different systems or at different times. Categorized redirects need all the same categories as the main game page, as well as [[:Category:Games]]. | In some cases, you'll need to categorize the redirect.

The purpose of categorized redirects is to get the redirect's name into the proper categories. For instance, if a game was released as Game A on the PlayStation and as Game B on the GameCube, and the main game page was going to reside at Game A, Game B would need the GameCube category on its redirect, or it wouldn't show up in the GameCube category. | The purpose of categorized redirects is to get the redirect's name into the proper categories.

If Game A got the GameCube category, then Game A would show up when it was never released for GameCube under that name. To still display information about Game B on Game A's page, you can use {{t|sys/nocat}}, {{t|co/nocat}} and {{t|rd/nocat}}, which won't put those categories on Game A's page. | ||
