Organizing this Cat

[edit]

I mistakenly removed the "Books to be Categorized by country" link from ones I thought were obvious like Birds of Great Britain or rivers in Ohio etc because the country was obvious. I only now say the correct category Books from Ireland etc. I will be more careful. I have, however, moved .djvu files to Category:Books DJVU files where they will be sorted accordingly I will be doing this with .pdf files as well. I am concentrating my current efforts in cleaning up all the book and catalog and journal subcats and this one as they are plugged with un categorized images from User:Fae's Script Bot. Any help is appreciated WayneRay (talk) 14:33, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Need an answer

[edit]

Category:Books to be categorised by country I am cleaning up Book Cats of all kinds. Especially ones where there are up to thousands of incomplete uploads such as the above mentioned Category most are in Category:Books by year. Should there even be single images in the above Category? They are not books. They are just photos and scans and pdf's and djvu files. If User:Fae's Bot Script did a better job they would be in a major book category already and not dumped at Category:Books to be categorised by country. If it had done a better Bot job all those 22,000 images would be the Book Cats to be cleaned up. It is my opinion that all these single images be deleted . Can I have your opinion if you have any say in major Commons matters? Thanks WayneRay (talk) 18:34, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup

[edit]

I have gone through all the images and groups of images and made sure they are connected to something before deleting them all. I am starting to cleanup the listed Categories and as discussed will place them in Books by country by year as this now shows up in each Books by year and it is not necessary to put in books by year. This is a great cleanup tool thanks to User:Butko WayneRay (talk) 18:15, 21 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
