Category:Destroyed buildings by function[edit]
i suppose, that the conclusion reached in Commons:Categories for discussion/2013/03/Category:Demolished buildings should be applied to this entire cat tree? so all existing cats should in principle be moved to "destroyed xx"? RZuo (talk) 04:21, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, I should think Category:Demolished hotels either should be at Category:Destroyed hotels or at Category:Hotels destroyed by demolition and so forth. - Themightyquill (talk) 08:37, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
- "Demolished" is far better. "Destroyed" might apply for something bombed during wartime, but a rename like this is ridiculous and should be reverted.
- As always, Commons' obsession with "consistency" in naming is pointless. MediaWiki just doesn't care about this. It's of no use, and it's simply an excuse to impose these ridiculous renames. "destroyed by demolition" is a classic Wikineologism - there is no such phrasing, there's a perfectly good word, "demolished" for this. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:23, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
Sorry, I should have closed discussion before I began to make the changes but this CFD has been open for months. You're welcome to create a new CFD on the base category if you don't like it. -- Themightyquill (talk) 07:23, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
