Categorizing track list from an Album, Drama CD or OST
In order to properly categorize track list, such list including in one album shouldnt be included in the main categorical ladder.

For example

The Album name is Saiyuki Party. This album should be properly categorize in Drama CD's or Album

However if a tracklist included in Saiyuki Party has been also categorize in the same category, it should be dealt with properly. Tracklist such as these: Saiyuki Party - Opening that is already included in an album should be categorize in another category tree which is obviously Category:Track list.
