Category:Users that play the Cruce card game (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Improper naming convention of "users", also knowing who plays a particular card game does not benefit the encyclopedia to categorize. VegaDark (talk) 04:03, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Users from New Zealand (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Improper naming convention of "users". Category should be renamed to Category:Wikipedians from New Zealand, or deleted as knowing where someone is from is not particularly encylopedically beneficial (most location categories are "Wikipedians in" categories, which IMO should be the standard convention).

"Who love" is an unexcyclopedic naming convention. Categorizing this also has no real encyclopedic benefit. VegaDark (talk) 04:03, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Wikipedians who listen to video game music (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Far too broad to foster any sort of collaboration. "Video game music", according to our article, is "any of the musical pieces or soundtracks found in video games." With the vast array of video games, this list of video game music would likely span almost every musical genre and would encompass millions of different tracks. Furthermore, we could just as easily rename this category to "Wikipedians who have ever played a video game not on mute, or are not deaf", because virtually everyone who has ever played a video game has listened to video game music. Overall, not a useful category to seek out others for collaboration. VegaDark (talk) 19:38, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Described as a list of Élton José Xavier Gomes supporters, it currently contains one user page. Gomes is a football (soccer) player.
