When am I permitted to create Regional subcategories under my topic?
Create regional subcategories when no other type of organization will work. You are permitted to create regional subcategories in the subject branches under the following circumstances:
Sites should have a global focus, and where the regional aspects of the site are incidental, or not as important, as the subject matter. Examples include, but are not limited to, colleges and universities, and academic subjects (literature, art history, archaeology, etc.).
Sites for subjects that are too specialized to be categorized by topic in the Regional branch. Specifically this includes cases where there may never be enough sites under a particular locality to warrant the creation of a topical subcategory. Examples include, but are not limited to, local recreational, professional, and enthusiast clubs and organizations. (1)

rdkeating25 writes The basic points to remember about creating regional subcategories are:
- Create regional subcategories when no other type of organization (e.g.by subtopic) will work.
- Don't duplicate categories in the Regional branch.
- Do not further build out a regional category beyond the /<1st level country subdivision> (e.g. State, Province, (country, for UK) ).
- Do not create topical cats under a regional category.
Other than eliminating overlaps, there is no reason to be taking any regionally organized categories out of the topical branches and dispersing them in Regional.

I have a topical category that includes a regional listing of "local" resources categorized by state. Will these state categories go to Regional?
If your category does not duplicate a similar category in Regional, you may maintain the regional categories under your topic. However, you should also submit these sites to the specific locality categories in Regional.
Make sure the proper @links are made at the state level in Regional to prevent any potential duplication. The @links should point directly to the state subcategory under your topical category.
If your category does duplicate a similar category in Regional, the two categories will be merged.
4.
There are two options for building out your regional subcategories: Regional/Country or Regional/Continent/Country.
Once you have created your regional structure under your topic, find the categories in the Regional branch of the ODP where @links should be placed, pointing to the regional category under your topic.
5.
Within a subject category, regional subcategories should be under a subcategory called "Regional." (e.g. Business/Directories/Regional). If you sites can only be classifieds by region, and you have not created a subject subcategories under the main category, then you do not need to create a Regional subcategory; create the geographical subcategories directky under your topical category. However, if additional subject categories are added, you should put the regional subcategories in a "Regional" category.
