Unlike TV Tropes, we don't do "list tropes" here. Instead, we use the MediaWiki "Category" functionality to list related pages. This very page takes advantage of that functionality to list pages that should be turned into categories.

In order to add a page to this list, add {{page should be category}} to the page, immediately below the Trope, Work, or Creator tag.

In order to turn a page into a category, make sure that the category exists, add the relevant page text (the description and categories, not the list) to the category page, and add the category to all of the pages that should be listed in the category. Only after all of that is done should the existing page be turned into a redirect to the category.
