Keys in raileay categories

[edit]

Hello, your deleting keys makes a mess in the main categories as everything is collecte under R. This is really not helpful. If you think, there are better keys and better category names, please proopse them. But deleting keys isn't helpful at all. Thank you Gürbetaler (talk) 21:23, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Gürbetaler: I left you a message on your talk page about it. It's not my job to propose something when your the one that wants to use keys to begin with. Regardless, they only work if it's consistent and they are all over the place in this case. So it doesn't make sense to organize the subcats that way. --Adamant1 (talk) 21:26, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Rail transport is the general term used in most categories. Older categories still lhave "railway" but this is only to be used in specific cases. All this has een discussed largely. Keys help to distinguish within rail transport. Gürbetaler (talk) 21:38, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Gürbetaler: I get the general point in keys. Obviously keys help distinguish things. That's not my issue. I explained things better on your talk page. I'd appreciate it if you responded there and skipped trying to tell me how keys work. I'm not having the discussion in multiple places or talking about why keys exist. --Adamant1 (talk) 21:41, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please notify users about problems with their files. Help:Gadget-UserMessages is very helpful for this purpose. EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:00, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@EugeneZelenko: I usually do. Its possible I forgot once though. Are you talking about speedy deletions or something else? --Adamant1 (talk) 15:04, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I went through Category:Advertisements for speedy deletion. EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:06, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@EugeneZelenko: Hhmm, I thought a bot automatically notifies uploaders with speedy deletions or is that not a thing? --Adamant1 (talk) 15:11, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently AntiCompositeBot only notifies people for certain types of speedy deletions and not others. Dumb. I'll be sure to keep that in mind. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:19, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
