Category talk:Basque

message: I have populated this category - at some point it probably needs subcats, e.g. Basque people, Basque sportspeople, Basque politics, Basque cities and towns, Basque culture...
The difficulty is that most autonomous communities of Spain have a category, and this is the equivalent. But it is also right that this contains articles on the French Basque Country, and even Navarre. Should there be separate categories or is it ok for there to be no distinction between the current political divisions and the historical Euskal Herria and wider Basque culture articles?

replies: text: Maybe cat:Basque Autonomous Community and cat:Navarre should be subcategories of both cat:Spain and cat:Basque, while cat:French Basque Country could be a subcat of bot cat:Basque and cat:France, thus removing cat:Basque from cat:Spain.--Erri4a 20:10, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)

The odd thig about this Gentleman is he must have been a very odd sort of Gentleman as he USED  TWO NAMES.
His real name, Then for some ODD reason he ran off, which I am still sorting out, BUT he used his Wifes DADS name instead of his own.
He was of course caught while abroad,  but that is another story on its own.
At moment I am just learning about the history of this Navy Division.
If any one can help I would be grateful.
I can of course supple rank, Name and photo of this Gentleman, IN fact both names and his record.
In return for more help about this Divisions history, or photos.

Category talk:Slovenian people by occupation

message: Do we need this meta-category, or should the categories it contains migrate upwards, becoming a subcategory of "Slovenian people". In my opinion, the structure is too exhaustive, with numerous categories having perhaps a few entries (Slovenian chess players, Slovenian engineers, Olympic rowers of Slovenia etc.). While we don't have thousands of entries, I would propose "Slovenian people" having only a selected few categories:
* Slovenian artists (writers, painters, architects, actors, musicians etc.)
* Slovenian scientists (mathematicians, philologists, philosophers, inventors, engineers etc.)
* Slovenian military persons
* Slovenian politicians
* Slovenian sportspeople (does the term "athlete" mean somebody doing athletics only, or sports in general? If the latter, I would opt for it.)
I believe we should only start thinking of breaking the categories into, say, writers, painters etc.
once the list goes beyond a screenful (e.g. over 100 entries). Does Wikipedia has some policy on this? --Peterlin 16:02, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: I say so-called "erototoxins" should not get their own page, but Judith Reisman should.  The subject can be brought up there.
--------
This seems to be blatently POV, but I've heard the term used in the media.  I'm not convinced that there shouldn't be an article of some sort about this, focused on the controversy, etc.  I would not be actively opposed to deletion.  -- Creidieki 16:52, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: I completely agree that the existence of "erotoxins" is complete baloney, but the POV of this article needs to be corrected.  The article starts off right away with:
"An erototoxin is a baseless and groundless attempt at defining a neurological chemical postulated by Judith Reisman, an anti-pornography activist." 
which is so clearly biased I won't even bother explaining why or how.
If I knew more about the issue, I would take the initiative at correcting the entire article, but for now I will try to clean it up within the next 24 hours.
