::::I have no problem with a few user subcategories, but in my opinion, [http://toolserver.org/~daniel/WikiSense/CategoryIntersect.php?wikifam=commons.wikimedia.org&basecat=Images+by+David+Castor&basedeep=5&mode=cl&go=Scan&format=html&userlang=en 79 subcategories] with its own particular naming style becomes too wieldy and will create maintenance problems and all sorts of noise. If all users start to do that, we will quickly have hundreds of thousands of user categories, so I would certainly leave the text "Category:Photos of London by User:Example", although this is discouraged." as has been removerd by [[User:Dcastor|Dcastor]]. --[[User:Foroa|Foroa]] ([[User talk:Foroa|talk]]) 06:19, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
