Classification edit

I undid the classification in Associations, Other organizations and Other because there were too many errors and distinction problems with it, e.g.:

  • Errors: National mapping agency, and Next Media Animation are not associations;
  • Problem 1: The distinction between associations and other organisations is not very relevant, e.g. because some associations act like companies;
  • Problem 2: Listings like Namangan Airport, National Movie Awards, New Media Age, and Nollywood Movies Awards could be an organisation as well as an airport/award/magazine. A listing like New Model Army could be the name of the band only and not of the organisation behind it (if it has any). So the distinction between Other organisations and Other is not very distinctive.

I wasn't sure how to fix the problems, so I thought it would be better to have no classification than a confusing classification. Gollem (talk) 11:32, 11 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
