There are only 2.

1. Make sure the category you'd like to suggest does not already exist.

2. We ask that you do a search of all WikiAnswers questions pertaining to the topic of the category you'd like to suggest. If more then 100 results come forth that relate to that topic then it's worth making a category for.

How to: Select the "Search" option at the top-right of any page on WikiAnswers, search in "Questions" and type in the category you'd like to suggest. Let's say the category you'd like to suggest is Pizza, type "Pizza" in the search bar and if 100+ results come up, it's a category worth suggesting.

After that, you may contact a Community Assistant and they will consider that category for creation.

Are the rules the same for suggesting a subcategory as they are for suggesting a category?

Yes, in general. A category and a subcategory are practically the same in terms of why we would add one to the site. In one specific instance (adding a top-level category), it is much more difficult to get one added, so adding a subcategory is definitely easier in that case.
