not sure I follow you - are Categories going to do the job here? have a
look at those. You add them at the end of the page.
To be pedantic, but also kind of helpful, I feel I should point out
that adding them at the end of the page is just a *convention* to make
editting them easier. The software will recognise them *wherever* they
come in the wikitext, but they will always *appear* (in the displayed
article) seperately from the main text and *not* wherever in the text
you actually typed them.
e.g. the text:
A nefle is a [[Category:Fruit]] that ...
will
add the article to the category fine, but will show up as something like:
A nefle is a that ...
----------------------------
Categories: Fruit
so instead you might use
A nefle is a [[fruit]] that ...
[[Category:Fruit]]
so that the first sentence still makes sense after the category
link
"disappears"
(See my earlier response for a help page that may or may not explain
it better than that.)
