Hawker Hurricanes
Hello! I saw your note regarding commons about the essentially duplicate category on wikicommons. Those category issues can be a serious mess to understand. I requested deletion of the extra one and it was taken care of by someone who knew what to do. Thanks for bringing it to attention! Tbennert (talk) 02:16, 31 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you for understanding my concern, sorting out the duplication issue, and kick-starting my user: talk page. When I first saw the Welcome to Wikipedia box (or should I call it a template ?) above, I didn't notice your user ID, and assumed it was a generic thing that popped up all by itself - I'm still learning, and clearly there is so much more to learn.
 * I have a further issue with the Hurricane categories at Commons, which would probably benefit from a discussion with somebody interested in aviation / categories. Is that you, or could you recommend somebody?
 * FYI at c:Category:Hawker_Hurricane there is a sub-category labelled c:Category:Albion_AM463_refueller which contains 10 photos of this vehicle, together with either a Spitfire (2 photos), a Hurricane (5 photos), or a Defiant (3 photos). Whilst it is very interesting, to me it seems slightly off-topic, unless there is a good argument for including a vehicle category on the Hurricane page, and not including it on either the corresponding Spitfire or Defiant pages.
 * But before you suggest I enrole with a Commons categories task-force, these are just two examples I have accidentally stumbled across, and I can quite happily tip-toe away from these problems without losing sleep. I'm just here to learn.

 * Hi! So sorry for the delay on responding. I missed a bit on my watchlist apparently. The short answer to this question is - I don't know. Wikimedia Commons is actually a sister project that handles all the media. I asked your question at Commons:Village pump. Hopefully someone there can help. I would encourage you to create an account over at Commons, mostly to find a "buddy" that can help when you stumble across these issues. All the wikipedia projects rely on Commons, so correct and easy to use categories are important. I'm happy to help, and know just enough to proceed on basic things. When it gets into subjects I have no clue on, then we need to call in more experienced people. Glad to see you plugging along and improving articles! --Tbennert (talk) 04:22, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
