Paraduin? An unused flag in the cat. Does it have any notability to be in our scope? E4024 (talk) 15:34, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- Not sure what your idea is, but the flag is certainly not unused. I case you meant the file, it's in use now as well and was so before. Sincerely, Guido den Broeder (talk) 02:12, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
Keep, from what I can tell Paraduin is an existing claimed sovereign country, even if the English-language Wikipedia decides against its inclusion in their encyclopedia doesn't mean that others don't want to educate people about its existence. In fact I think that we should be glad that the designer of the flag has decided to donate it to Wikimedia Commons. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 21:59, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
Delete only one file... This defeats the entire purpose of categories, namely to group similar files together. --HyperGaruda (talk) 08:09, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- That is not true, categories can only include more files if they have the potential to have more files and if they make sense. I've seen plenty of categories with only one file in it, especially if there is a related Wikipedia article which at the time of its creation there was. There is no need to overpopulate higher categories if you can make sensible sub-categories which you can later populate and it doesn't matter if this is years old (the page being created on June 13th (thirteenth), 2017) since there is no deadline. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 08:14, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- Agree with categories that have potential. I just do not see Paraduin having that potential. --HyperGaruda (talk) 09:30, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
- That may depend on what the WMF does next. They made a good start with Fram, but it takes more for me to be interested in contributing again. Of course, freely licensed images can also be uploaded by others. Guido den Broeder (talk) 10:54, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
