  • Well, I have created one more article. The category has many articles on the Chinese Wikipedia, so I think it has potential for growth.--MakecatTalk 02:42, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep. I created a couple more articles based on the Chinese Wikipedia. Please do forgive my poor Chinese skills. I know there is a need for these articles, so any contributions to the member articles would be appreciated. CaseyPenk (talk) 06:26, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

:* Propose deleting {{Lc|SVG flags}}

:Nominator's rationale: per WP:SMALLCAT.. Contains only one image. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 00:00, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Comment. There are a bunch more of these on Wikipedia, some of which I have added to the category, but I imagine these should just be merged to {{Cat|Flag images}}. I'm not sure what the perceived advantage of subcategorizing by file type might be, unless this is some sort of flip-side tracking device to accompany {{cat|Flag images that should be in SVG format}}. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:20, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Upmerge to :Category:Flag images -- 70.24.251.208 (talk) 06:59, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep as a useful sorting mechanism until :Category:Flag images that should be in SVG format is deprecated. Separating between SVG and non-SVG helps image creators direct their attention to the appropriate areas. Once all flags are in SVG format, we can upmerge both categories. But as it is, :Category:Flag images is diffused into useful subcategories. If we decide to upmerge :Category:SVG flags, then we must logically upmerge :Category:Flag images that should be in SVG format (which is not a step that would help editors). So, I suggest we keep the diffusion structure as a motivational tool and sorting mechanism. CaseyPenk (talk) 06:33, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

:*Note: I diffused the handful of member flags of :Category:Flag images into the appropriate sub-category. Now the sub-categorization scheme is at least implemented consistently. CaseyPenk (talk) 06:37, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

::*Question: if the nominated category is upmerged why must :Category:Flag images that should be in SVG format be upmerged as well? It seems to me we only need one of these to appropriately track the issue; i.e., if they are not in :Category:Flag images that should be in SVG format, then they should be in SVG format. I don't see why we need a category to group this explicitly. If they are in the correct format, they could just go in {{cat|Flag images}} without any further comment via the category name. Good Ol’factory (talk) 07:10, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Upmerge per Olfactory's convincing argument (see discussion directly above this one). The default should be SVG, and any non-compliant PNGs or JPGs should be labelled as such and subject to "ostracization" if you will. CaseyPenk (talk) 08:18, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
