I have decided to split the numerous categories pertaining to grammar/spelling/punctuation/capitalization into three groups: categories that can only be added to Trollpastas (read: deliberately bad pastas), categories that can only be added to crappypastas (read: unintentionally bad creepypastas), and categories that can be added to both.

Trollpasta-only

  • English Class Failure: Essentially for pages with horrible grammar/spelling/punctuation, albeit more-or-less intentionally so (note that if it's in this category, it cannot go into any other grammar-related except possibly Wall of Text, All-lowercase, or Please Do Not Capitalize Every Word).

Crappypasta-only

Applicable to both (and then some)

  • ENGLISH, MUDDAFUGGA! DO YOU SPEAK IT?!: Pastas that go beyond English Class Failure and dive head-first into incomprehensibility. Though this is primarily for Trollpastas that take English Class Failure to its logical extreme, it can be applied to "actual" pastas if they are bad enough in the English department (note that if it's in this category, it cannot go into any other grammar-related except possibly Wall of Text, All-lowercase, or Please Do Not Capitalize Every Word).
  • Run-On Sentences: Pastas with sentences that just go on and on and on and on and... (note that this is not for Pages with horrible grammar in most cases, as this is an extremely common grammatical failure).
  • All lowercase: the antithesis of ALL CAPS.
  • Please Do Not Capitalize Every Word. For Pastas That Capitalize Every Word Of Every Sentence, Like It's All Just One Long Movie Title.
  • Wall of Text: Pages with little to no paragraph breaks.
  • Pages with grammar that doesn't suck: Self-explanatory. If a page is in this category, it should not be in any of the above categories. Nuff said.

UPDATE

I've decided to group together all the "similar" categories on this wiki. Note that these are not supposed to be organized in any way yet; I'm just dumping them in their respective groups and then organizing them later. Note also that many of these are unneeded. The reasons for why they are unneeded are supplied in each of their respective category descriptions.

Butthurt/Fail/Drama

As you can see, we have WAY too many of these kinds of categories. From overly-specific subcategories to categories that overlap so much with one another that it becomes hard to tell the difference between them (if there was any to begin with), the following group of categories is by far the biggest organizational clusterfuck I've ever had to deal with on this wiki (category-wise). Yes, even more than all the spam categories we had in the past, as these, unlike the spam categories, are very well-established on this wiki and have sort of become a part of its infrastructure. I have divided this into the following two subgroups.
