Comedians as Authors panel at the 2014 Brooklyn Book Festival[edit]

Hi, Trivialist. As is explained at COM:OVERCAT, "The general rule is always place an image in the most specific categories, and not in the levels above those." When I take one or two photos of a person, I put them in that person's category, but when I take large amounts of photos of them, (i.e.: at a specific event), I create an category for that event, and place that category as a subcategory in the person's category, which is the entire reason why categories are subdivided.

Because I and others often take large amounts of photos of people, sometimes at multiple events, all the photos would not fit on the person's main cat page. A good example is Patrick Stewart's page. Had I not placed the 63 photos I took of him at Wizard World 2013, and the 34 pics I took of him and his colleagues at the press junket at Sardis in their own subcats, they'd all be on the main page, and combined with the 49 already on that page, they'd be cluttered. Subcategorizing helps organize files.

Another benefit to this is that I only have to place the new event category as a subcat in other categories once, instead of doing it for each and every photo, which makes it easier for me to upload large amounts of photos. Nightscream (talk) 03:03, 10 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Uncategorization[edit]

I’m not sure what was meant with this edit (and hundreds like this you made recently) but it doesn’t seem like a good idea at all. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 10:20, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

- After discovering your edit to File:Four-Feathers-1939.jpg, I'm perplexed, too, at the removal of all of the categories grouped under Category:Film scores by composer. These are represented on Wikidata. Has there been discussion? — WFinch (talk) 13:05, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  - @Tuvalkin, Andy Dingley, and WFinch: Apologies—it was a combination of my assuming that category guidelines here were the same as Wikipedia, where categorizing performers by their performances is to be avoided, and seeing the contibutions of 2001:8003:4E68:5201:B05F:E923:9F3C:1A82, which seemed to be duplicating Wikipedia categorization for no obvious reason. Trivialist (talk) 23:00, 16 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I see. Glad that now that you know that Commons and Wikipedia are separate projects with different goals. Care to undo all you uncategorization? -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 00:01, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Tuvalkin: I'll do what I can, though it might be more efficient to get an admin to just roll back all of my edits of yesterday. Trivialist (talk) 00:37, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I think you can request that at Commons:ANU. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 00:40, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Wasn't sure where to request that, so thanks :) Trivialist (talk) 00:44, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
