::::This is Commons not Wikipedia. Over here we accumulate media suitable for use on Wikipedia and its sister sites. It's not unusual to have more pictures to illustrate a topic than are actually needed. As such, I'm OK with the lowest level vehicle categories. What's really needed are some nice galleries showing off the pictures we have. Is there a script which will seed these galleries with the media we have?

:::::@[[User:Liamdavies|Liamdavies]]. You force me to go round in circles again.

:::::* I didn't enforce nor create this system (except for some historic pieces) but I understand and respect it (its benefits were explained above). I consider as unacceptable to destroy this big work and to pour hundreds of images back together into big mixed dumps. However, I would be not in a hurry for mass application of this system on buses, metro and railway rolling stock etc. (except for important or specific pieces).

+
:::::* I understand and share our troubles with modular categorization but the solution is to create some tool for effective browsing of subcategories or create some paralel category branch (trams by view, details of trams by type - e. g. "Roofs of Tatra T14" - etc.) or overview galleries. I'm ready to support such constructive changes, but not any destructive changes. --[[User:ŠJů|ŠJů]] ([[User talk:ŠJů|talk]]) 03:07, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
