Category talk:Rivers of Ireland

1. The article begins This category has been listed for deletion; however, it does not appear to be listed on the "categories for deletion" page. 2. There are alphabetical order oddities here. 3. I doubt we need this page in addition to List of rivers in Ireland (the latter does a better job IMHO). 4. I don't know what the solution to any of these points is! -- Picapica 22:42, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)


 * Categories and lists serve different purposes (lists can hold red links, categories are more easily populated/updated).


 * The delete notice (which I'm removing) was from a suggested change from Rivers in CountryName to Rivers of CountryName. See Categories for deletion/Rivers of the world.


 * Category items can automatically alphabetically sort, or this can be overridden with the form (sorting "River Shannon" under S not R in this case). Someone will need to check the alphabetising by looking at the category links on the article pages.



OK. Done that. For the sake of consistency can we reverse the "River Boyne" to "Boyne" redirect? -- Picapica 14:16, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
