Talk:List of Cape Breton fiddlers

Remove this Page?
Would it be enough to mark each person's page with an appropriate category? Shall we remove this page? jmcw (talk) 08:26, 4 July 2008 (UTC)


 * As for the second question:
 * Well, this page certainly isn't alone - see, for example, category:Lists of musicians by instrument. Wikipedia:Categories, lists, etc points out limitations to categories and nice features of lists.
 * Personally, I'd go with keeping categories, dropping lists, and hoping that somewhere down the line the shortcomings of categories are dealt with. In the case of Cape Breton fiddlers, a list isn't that big a problem —there won't be a lot of mis-listed names (compare it to the List of fiddlers; see also the 'drop the List of fiddlers, replace with categories' discussion here).
 * As for the first question:
 * In fact, each person's page is already marked with the appropriate category: Category:Cape Breton fiddlers overlaps entirely with this List.— eitch 20:04, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
