Odd name, should be Category:Aerial views of the Alaskan Way Viaduct. User:Chris Light, any objection to the renaming? Jmabel ! talk 20:36, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also, at least some of these are not aerial views. File:Pike Market from the RIC - panoramio.jpg and File:CenturyLink Field from Space Needle.jpg are both from buildings, others might also be, you should check. - Jmabel ! talk 20:40, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
New name could be easier. I'll check for aerial versus buildings. I think there are a lot of images down onto the Viaduct. A category for these might be useful. I'll mull it over and maybe make a suggestion. Chris Light (talk) 03:51, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
More generic would be Category:Alaskan Way Viaduct from above. But then on all that actually are aerial photographs, you'd want to restore the Category:Aerial photographs of Seattle that I removed from these as redundant. - Jmabel ! talk 07:02, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Chris Light: which way do you want to go? Category:Aerial views of the Alaskan Way Viaduct or Category:Alaskan Way Viaduct from above? I don't really care which. - Jmabel ! talk 20:38, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Category:Aerial views of the Alaskan Way Viaduct is in line with other categories with Aerial views.  That wording keeps it in line for consolidation of aerial views upward to Category:Aerial photographs. I'd go for that. A high-level category Category:Views from above includes the Category:Aerial photographs. Checking Category:Views of New York (state) from above has a category for Niagara Falls, which has many sub-categories with views from overlooks and viewing towers. Possibly a category using the 'views from above' language may be appropriate for the Alaskan Way Viaduct at a later date. I know that is reverse of what I started in moving images to the existing category. Chris Light (talk) 23:58, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
