I'm sorry I haven't been here to answer this - nor have I visited the wiki for about a week now I think - I'll visit it later today to see all the hard work you guys have done, I promise!
Anyway, yeah the "lists" are created automatically - when you connect an article with a category the list is automatically updated. Here's how to do it: write ((Category:Characters)) at the end of a character article - except replace ( with [ and ) with ] . (I can't use double [s here because the forum thinks I'm trying to link to a wiki article with them!)
You can spy the code of any article to see that coding if you can't remember it and just copy+paste it to your article. I hope this helped!
