Anything in the wiki can be added two ways:
1. Make a URL in your address bar that corresponds to the page you want
to see, it will then bring you to the edit page for the non-existent page.
2. Make a link on a "sandbox" page like your User page (click your
username) at the top and add a link to the non-existant page/category.
Specifically for categories, categorizing a page into a non-existent
category will put the link to the missing category at the bottom of the
page where it can be clicked and saved.
