Category talk:Marvel Cinematic Universe character redirects to lists

Cite the rule
User:Gonnym Please cite the place where it says that Category:Marvel Cinematic Universe element redirects to lists can not be a parent category to Category:Marvel Cinematic Universe character redirects to lists. Because that certainly does not make any sense.★Trekker (talk) 20:08, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
 * First, don't set the rules of the discussion. You know there are no "rules" anywhere. But I will point you to how your change breaks the category tree structure. Category:Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. character redirects to lists is a sub-category of Category:Television character redirects to lists, which is a sub-category Category:Fictional character redirects to lists, which is a sub-category of Category:Fiction-based redirects to list entries. The top level category also has Category:Fictional element redirects to lists, and locations and episodes. The "element" in the name, refers to everything that isn't one of the others, not as a parent to them all. --Gonnym (talk) 20:14, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't feel like I "set the rules for the discussion" I asked a question, I wanted an awnser thats not just "this is the way it is" which seems to be the main way people react when someone doesn't seem to understand something on this website. Scondly, clearly Wikipedia does have "rules", and it feels pretty strange to claim otherwise (we may call them "guidlines" but they're rules by any other name). But thank you for explaing that the simplest solution to this is simply to correct the wording of the category.★Trekker (talk) 20:31, 15 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Sorry if I misunderstood your intent and over-reacted. I've had dealings with editors who when they ask for a "rule", literally ask for something that says the exact thing they want to hear. Glad that wasn't what you meant. Your change to MCU episodes redirect category is good. Thanks for the help with the cats. Gonnym (talk)
 * Thank you for your great work as well!★Trekker (talk) 20:39, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
