Category talk:Prehistoric gastropods by taxon

Reasoning and name of the category
Hello User:Abyssal, why this category has such a strange name "Prehistoric gastropods by taxon"? (All articles of animals are virtually taxons.) Why this category even exist? Especially when you already created useful category Category:Gastropod families, that include all categories included here. The name of the category says nothing. If we could keep the same content of this category, then we could rename it to "Prehistoric gastropod families". But is it useful to broke complex category "Gastropod families" into extant and prehistoric ones? --Snek01 (talk) 16:06, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I don't recall creating this category, but if I had to guess I would guess that its 100+ subcategories had been cluttering up Category:Prehistoric gastropods to the point of unusability. I don't have any specific opinions about what's to be done with it. I'll leave that for the snail people. :) Abyssal (talk) 01:01, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I agree with upmerging Category:Prehistoric gastropods by taxon into the Category:Prehistoric gastropods. --Snek01 (talk) 11:38, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
 * This category includes only families of extinct species. Therefore, if the category name has to be changed, it would better be named "Category:Prehistoric gastropod families" or "Category: Extinct gastropod familes". JoJan (talk) 14:36, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
