Category talk:OpAphid images

Deletion?

I didn't realize that this was a redundant category until I came across Category:OpAphid Images, and I think if we delete it it'll help prevent others from making the mistake I made (which was adding this category to images, instead of the other one ^^;;). -- tai 02:30, 16 February 2007 (CST)

I'm not whether to delete this one or the capital "I" one. I was working on the message below when you posted this. OwenIsCool 02:34, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Category naming conventions

When I was organizing images into categories earlier, I came across this category and I thought, gee, it should really be "Images" with a capital "I". There weren't too many pics already in the category, so I figured it wouldn't be too much work to go and just change them, so I moved everything from Category:OpAphid images to Category:OpAphid images. However, while doing that... I came upon the unfortunate realization that many other categories also use the lowercase "images", including Category:NBR images, Category:Tachyon images, Category:Brother images, Category:Immant images, and Category:itscassie images. I don't know what to do because, naturally, the intuitive thing to do is have all image-related categories start with "Images of" and then stick to starting letters in a capital. It would make it a lot easier to categorize, especially since the wiki doesn't know I mean the same thing by "OpAphid images" as by "OpAphid Images". And yet, it seems like it would just be too much work for too little benefit to go and change all these. It still bugs me though. All I can say is... rawr! angry!

Yeah, I noticed that too.  :/ Well, I'm willing to re-categorize, if that's the decision everyone agrees on. I don't mind the work, it gives me something to do. -- tai 02:49, 16 February 2007 (CST)

let's wait and see what the others say. I already created work for us when I added a bunch of images to Category:NBR Images... oopsie. I'm leaving it until we figure out what to do. OwenIsCool 02:57, 16 February 2007 (CST)

LOL, I didn't realize you'd already picked up on that, Tai. Ok, so they're all at lowercase "i" category. Did I open a can of worms or what? Me so fired. OwenIsCool 02:59, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Lol, I don't think you're fired. XD Here, have some cookies! -- tai 03:08, 16 February 2007 (CST)

omigosh I love cookies... wish Bree had shared a couple of those recipes. OwenIsCool 14:03, 17 February 2007 (CST)

I'd say lowercase. We have category:Immant videos, so it should be category:Immant images too, right? "Immant Images" looks to me like a business that develops photos, whereas with "Immant images," it's clear to me that it just means images of Immant. And even if that's not correct -- it looks like most of the categories are already lowercase, so rather than worry too much about the grammar, let's just take the easy way out.--JayHenry 03:05, 16 February 2007 (CST)

Since there really are quite a bit of categories already using the lowercase "i" and there's no fast way to fix them, I agree we should go with that. I'll move back the Op images to this category, and delete the "OpAphid Images". Tai had already moved back the NBR pics, so it won't be so bad. LOL on the Immant Images thing...

All right, having restored the Op images back here (their rightful category), I think I'll go ahead and take off the deletion template, as well as go delete the wrong "Images" category. OwenIsCool 18:11, 17 February 2007 (CST)
