Nominator's rationale: To match article name (C2D) and Chandrabose is clearly identified as a lyricist and not a songwriter. Richhoncho (talk) 23:12, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle: Not changing, there are 2 subcats of songs by songwriter, Category:Songs by composer and Category:Songs by lyricist and members of the lyricist cat take the the form I have suggested. --Richhoncho (talk) 07:40, 31 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: We don't have Category:Depictions. How's the scope different from Category:Art depicting people? Are there non-art depictions of people? The only remaining subcategory here is Cultural depictions of people‎, which per the discussion here should probably renamed to Category:People in culture since it's part of Category:Topics in culture. This parent category is just unnecessary. (Also, since this is under Category:Works by topic, I guess it could be alternatively renamed to Category:Works about people instead of being deleted, if there is preference that it should be kept).

You may be right, but that isn't at all what the nomination actually says. If you are right, it should be restated. Johnbod (talk) 15:59, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Marcocapelle Indeed. Although another thing emerges for consideration: the difference (if any) between Category:Works by topic and Category:Fiction by topic. Fiction is two-levels down, under Works by topic-Literature by topic. Our article on fiction notes that this is the narrow understanding of fiction (" written narratives in prose"). But in my experience, most articles named "Foo in fiction" and related categories discuss the broader meaning ("imaginary narratives expressed in any medium"). What I am getting at here is whether the location of Category:Fiction by topic in the category tree is correct (under literature), or whether we need some sort of split, one for narrow meaning, one for larger meaning (and how they should be named?). Not sure if there is a better place to discuss this (the talk page of that category, perhaps?). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:44, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
