Cite your sources, using MLA documentation. In writing an example paper, you discovered you needed a thesis that is illustrated by a few examples. You enumerated, or made a list of, examples.

Besides, we all like to classify. We do it naturally. Students classify their professors as boring or stimulating. Homemakers classify their cooking utensils, perhaps as those used often and those that are used occasionally, and place them in drawers and cupboards accordingly. Be sure you are consistent in the criteria you apply to your data, and tell people what you mean by any special terms you have used.
