"in the Statens Museum for Kunst"

[edit]

As a native Danish speaker I really think category names like Category:Busts in the Statens Museum for Kunst is an abomination. Is there any chance all these categories could be changed back to Category:Busts in Statens Museum for Kunst? Hjart (talk) 10:35, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hjart: So that I understand, could you explain why that's such an undesirable construction? Is it that the definite article isn't used in the equivalent Danish construction? Is the definite article already implied in some way in the phrase "Statens Museum for Kunst"? (I will have articulated that poorly, but that is a phenomenon I'm familiar with from another language I speak, namely Welsh: our national museum is officially titled "Amgueddfa Cymru", including in English-language usage, but "the Amgueddfa Cymru" – on the pattern of "the Louvre", "the Rijksmuseum", etc. – would be very wrong as "Amgueddfa Cymru" translates to "the Museum of Wales", definite article and preposition and all. Is it anything like that for the SMK?) Ham II (talk) 11:24, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Statens Museum for Kunst" literally translates to "The [Danish] State's Museum of art". To native Danes like me "Busts in the Statens Museum for Kunst" reads like "Busts in the the State's Museum of art". Hjart (talk) 12:16, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the explanation. I believe that all the recent categories in the Category:Collections of the Statens Museum for Kunst tree have been created by WLKBot, which is maintained by Kim Bach. This includes Category:Busts in the Statens Museum for Kunst, when Category:Busts in Statens Museum for Kunst (which I turned into a redirect) already existed. Category:Collections of the Statens Museum for Kunst itself was created by Rsteen. @Kim Bach and Rsteen: I understand from your user pages that you're both native Danish speakers. Would you agree with Hjart's view that "in Statens Museum for Kunst" (in English) is better than "in the Statens Museum for Kunst"? Ham II (talk) 14:00, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's worth noting that the subcategories of Category:Paintings in Denmark by museum generally do not follow the pattern of the Statens Museum for Kunst subcategories. Also when I was still fairly new to Commons I could probably have come up with something similar to "Busts in the Statens Museum for Kunst". Having gained quite a bit of experience since then, I have changed my views a bit and grown increasingly annoyed with constructs like that. Hjart (talk) 14:43, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. When I started submitting categories in this field many years ago, I also used the term "in Statens Museum for Kunst". But in 2023, when Statens Museum for Kunst started the (very recommendable) mass upload of files to Commons, they went for "in the Statens Museum for Kunst". I do not know if that is an official policy of the institution, Kim Bach will have to explain that. Cheers Rsteen (talk) 02:25, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
