::::I'm still confused. Why would you [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3A020-1211_Enschede_016.JPG&diff=92703130&oldid=92701027 "supress"] what appears to be a perfectly proper category? – [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta#top|talk]]) 20:29, 16 March 2013 (UTC) Ok, nevermind... 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)

:::::Not "punitive", but spam avoidance. Because the categorie listing provides the free advertizing (spam) that the user intented. I'm glad that Fae found a hack that's reversible. One more thing: the last 300 or so files were uploaded with "InZicht" (the other name of the website and the organization) as the first part of the file name. Is there a bulk way to change that too?

::::::Yes, but I'm going AFK - leave a note on my talk page explaining what is needed, and I could deal with it tomorrow at some point unless someone gets on to it before me. Thanks --[[User:Fæ|Fæ]] ([[User talk:Fæ|talk]]) 20:39, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
