:::I'm a little confused about this business of "{commonscat} sister links". Could you explain that to me further so I can see what you're talking about? – [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta#top|talk]]) 19:50, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

:::Okay, I'm suppressing visible categories. It's a bit of a hack but nicely reversible, so long as these images are in a handy category when we want to find them to reverse this suppression. (Commonscat is a way of indicating on various Wikipedias where images related to the topic can be found in a Commons category. Suppressing the visible categories makes these effectively vanish for the moment.) --[[User:Fæ|Fæ]] ([[User talk:Fæ|talk]]) 20:23, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

I think I understand. it's a punitive thing to try and make these images "disappear" from various categories. Personally I think that's a little silly, overdoing things and it just creates ''more'' work because someone has to go back and "unsupress" them. I think we should eliminate improper categories but leave the proper ones alone. – [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta#top|talk]]) 20:34, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
