I don't quite understand the structure of the categories in this topic area of what I would call war literature. In particular, there is a category for "Yugoslav Wars in fiction". It includes novels about the Yugoslav Wars but there's nothing for novels about the Yugoslav Wars under the "War novels by war" category, The "Yugoslav Wars in fiction" category seems to include films as well as novels. How to resolve this seeming-to-me category mess? Sterry2607 (talk) 12:38, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If there are enough novels about this topic, you could simply create a subcategory Yugoslav Wars novels subcategory. "In fiction" categories are supposed to be main categories about all depictions of a topic in fictional works.

Have you created a subcategory before? Dimadick (talk) 06:03, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
