This category largely exists to separate concepts from within ''Mario'' media ([[:Category:Main|main]]) and real-life things ([[:Category:Real world|real world]]). Real world has [[:Category:People|people]]; main has [[:Category:Characters|characters]]. Real world has [[:Category:Places|places]]; main has [[:Category:Locations|locations]]. Real world has [[:Category:Special events|special events]]; main has [[:Category:Events|events]]. Real world has [[:Category:Television series|television series]]; main has [[:Category:Shows|shows]]. Real world has [[:Category:Companies|companies]]; main has [[:Category:Organizations|organizations]]/[[:Category:Businesses|businesses]]. [[:Category:Music|Music]] contains stuff from within ''Mario'' media while [[:Category:Live music|live music]] exists in real life and [[:Category:Albums|albums]] are bought in real life, hence their parent categories. Yeah you could merge it all into main, but then the distinction between the examples I listed becomes less clear. The pages and immediate subcategories of [[:Category:Game mechanics|game mechanics]] are in-game concepts, same with [[:Category:Downloadable content|downloadable content]], which is why those are in main. --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 20:23, September 19, 2021 (EDT)

:Hm, I guess I could settle for a rename of the category because I don't like how "real world" sounds. (Bands btw, are categorized under music such as Mario Orchestra, even though they're more akin to development teams). {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 20:56, September 19, 2021 (EDT)

::Yeah I just realized that and moved those to [[:Category:Live music|live music]]. What would you rename it to? "Real life" would at least be consistent with [[List of Mario references in real life|this title]]; I'm good with that. --{{User:Porplemontage/sig}} 21:13, September 19, 2021 (EDT)
