Where possible, categorize pages using the official list of categories. Stick to these categories where possible; don't create new categories unless there is a real need.
Categorize pages by putting that category's template at the top. Templates are made by two curly brackets and an equals sign, like this: {{Category=Beekeeping}}. So at the top of a page about beekeeping, you would write {{Category=Beekeeping}}. This will do two things: insert a navigation menu at the top, and put the page in the appropriate wiki category.
When writing about measurements, list both imperial and metric values. List both farenheit and celcius for temperatures.
