:If you're looking for flags, openclipart.org has a reasonably full set as public-domain .SVG's. Perhaps you could use those? --[[User:66.102.73.18|66.102.73.18]] 02:22, 15 December 2006 (EST) | |||
== Duplicate categories == | |||
:We do seem to have many redundant categories, for instance [[:category:game]]/[[:category:games]]/[[:category:gaming]]. These seem to often be being #REDIRECT'ed - not necessarily the best approach, as a redirected page still appears to be a blue link and therefore is prone to keep getting added to articles. Would deleting the duplicates entirely so that they become [[red links]] be more likely to discourage their recreation or re-use? The [http://wikiindex.com/index.php?title=User_talk%3ASmiddle&diff=37811&oldid=37514 politics] is, I presume, just a sideshow and the creation of multiple near-identical categories in most cases merely an accident, but I thought it would be best to ask here instead of trying to find a "votes for speedy deletion" tag for them. | |||
