Category-Talk:Images Of Spectacles

== Category:Images of spectacles → Category:Images of glasses (754 left) ==
::(discussion moved from Category talk:Candidates for renaming)
Just to put up a notice here in case the addition is not easily discoverable - I added Category:Images of spectacles to be moved to Category:Images of glasses to match the Glasses article. It is a very large category so it definitely should be moved by a bot. MalchonC (User talk:MalchonC) 15:29, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
:Wouldn't that potentially cause confusion with images of e.g. wine glasses? -  MrSiriusBlack  Talk  23:59, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
::Possibly, but there isn't really such category, so all that matters is if "Images of glasses" alone makes one think about other types of glasses. MalchonC (User talk:MalchonC) 08:16, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
:::Both glasses and spectacles is used throughout the books, with glasses being used more often, but also being used to refer to drinking glasses and hour-glasses. Personally I find spectacles to be more specific and would argue for changing the article name to match. Glasses can be used as redirect for now or a disambig page should a drinking glass article be created in the future. IMHO --Ironyak1 (User talk:Ironyak1) 19:21, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
::::As long as the article and the category are consistent, both are fine with me. MalchonC (User talk:MalchonC) 04:26, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
== Well this is a big category ==
Perhaps a 'Harry Potter's spectacles' subcategory should be made? - User:MrSiriusBlack| MrSiriusBlack User talk:MrSiriusBlack| Talk  23:57, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
I could add that category instead of this category. User:SeichanGrey (User talk:SeichanGrey) 01:30, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
:We don't have an article page for Harry Potter's spectacles though. Spectacles are rather trivial anyway; I'd be more interested in creating more subcategories for :Category:Images Of Wands. User:MalchonC (User talk:MalchonC) 04:51, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
::I don't see how it matters that there is no page for Harry's spectacles? They are the most easily and widely recognisable spectacles in the series, and the way it's going, everything in :Category:Images of Harry James Potter is going to end up in Cat:Images of spectacles, which just seems silly and renders this spectacles category rather useless, especially if a wiki reader is looking for images of other spectacles, consequently drowned in images of Harry. - User:MrSiriusBlack MrSiriusBlack User talk:MrSiriusBlack Talk  12:01, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
:::Oh great, now we have to change hundreds of Images of spectacles to Images of Harry Potter's spectacles… User:MalchonC (User talk:MalchonC) 14:16, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
::::That's what bots are for. - User:MrSiriusBlack| MrSiriusBlack User talk:MrSiriusBlack| Talk  18:43, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
:::I personally think this new category is unecessary. User:SeichanGrey (User talk:SeichanGrey) 19:16, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
::::Then why did you create it...? - User:MrSiriusBlack| MrSiriusBlack User talk:MrSiriusBlack Talk  20:32, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
