Category talk:Images/Planets

Is this category necessary? I already created Category: Planet images. -- 17:11, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, as I understood the description you added to Category:Planet images, it serves a different purpose than this Category; you defined that category as a place for images of planets from space. Category:Alderaan/Images doesn't fit that description. I'm intending this to be part of a more defined index structure, branching off from the core you've been constructing.


 * I guess we could merge the two, if you think it's appropriate. The thought had occurred to me, but I didn't want to step on your toes. You're on a roll, and I didn't want to throw you off. -- Heaven&#39;s Agent 17:32, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * There is no harm in having multiple categories, just keep them within the overall category tree properly. I do suggest however if you have nested categories, serving as separators, that images are in the lowest appropriate tier. Also, do not use subpaging designations on categories. The appropriate category name would be Category:Alderaan images and would be subcatted to Category:Planet images. It can also be subcatted to Category:Alderaan. --Wynthyst 17:46, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * That works. Just trying to get this mess semi organized. Thanks guys! -- 18:01, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah, you are doing a great job. I'm just kind of an organizational freak, though I know it doesn't show so much here, so once you started really working on the category tree, I want to make sure it's being done correctly, since categories can't be renamed, they have to be recreated. --Wynthyst 18:05, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Is there any reason not to utilize subpaging? I've always found such categorization to serve the same purpose as subpaging of articles themselves, but applied more logically. Being able to easily trace back to a parent category makes sense for an index, and would be a definite benefit. Additionally, I can't think of any downside of using subpages within a category structure. -- Heaven&#39;s Agent 18:44, 18 October 2011 (UTC)


 * I think it might be better for me to include this in a general clarification on the project's categorization. I'll ask it again elsewhere. -- Heaven&#39;s Agent 18:55, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
