    I am compiling character tables of various groups. For ease of including into related entries (e.g. for isomorphic groups) I’ll give them their own little entries

    This used to be at character table of 2O. As discussed there, due to a mistake on both Groupnames and Wikipedia, this is not actually the character table of the binary octahedral group, but of the finite general linear group GL(2,3). Hence I have split this off as separate entries now, and corrected the character table of 2O.

    Could you add these to a category called “character tables”, it would make finding them easier in the future.

    Maybe I find the time later. But if you have time and energy right now, feel free to go ahead with adding the labels.

    Here you go. If you are going to continue just add

    category: character tables

    at the end

    Alizter, don’t rely on me doing this. I won’t stop you doing so, but I don’t think this is energy well invested.

    Think about how a user will go about finding character tables: He or she will eventually end up on the page character table. It’s that page which needs to make sure to have pointers to whatever further information on character tables the reader might want to see. In particular, examples of character tables should be listed under Examples there, see here.

    My feeling is that both are good. Having character table link to everything appropriate is very important. But I think use of categories can be convenient for the reader and editor too. Thus no need for any obligation to add categories, certainly, but if some people wish to add them, I would be positive to this.
