people sub categories edit

Why are people categories, like Category:Actors by nationality, listed here? Shouldn't there just be genres, like Category:Animation by country? These two just happen to be the first examples in the list. I'm also not addressing the issue of country/nationality either in this question.

I propose moving the people categories to a new category, Category:Arts occupations by nationality, which would be a subcategory of Category:Arts occupations. Clubmarx (talk) 04:18, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

There are actually virtually no genres in the category at all. It mainly consists of media or occupations. I think a rename would be better. I can see utility in having both types in the same category in this case, confusing though may seem. Perhaps rename to Category:Arts media and occupations by nationality.

Rename maybe, but I don't see why 2 categories should be conflated like this. Clubmarx (talk) 04:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Well ok, split them then. But the "genres" should be renamed, as none are. Johnbod (talk) 04:57, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
I've added the new occupations cat back here, as I think there need to be some linkage between the two trees. It looks a lot tidier now. Johnbod (talk) 13:29, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
