(Sorry to write in Engilsh)

Hello,

I have a question about this category. As I understand it August 1620 Prince Maurice set up camp near the German town of Wesel to protect the Republic from a possible invasion by Spinola and/or as a base to give assistance to the Protestant Union of Germany (against Spinola). Not to conquer Wesel itself. Is that correct? If so maybe this category should be renamed Category:Dutch army camp near Wesel, 1620 or something similar.

Thank you for your message!
Yes, your perspective is correct, I also understand that camp was not for the capture of Wesel itself, but for the Pfalz expedition by the English Army.
I think it makes sense to change the category name to your suggestion, but do you know how to change the category name? Blue Tulip (talk) 22:40, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Found a SOP for renaming category.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Rename_a_category
The original category should be redirected rather than deleted, to use "Template:Category redirect".
I want work after understanding the contents, but if you have already experienced it, I would like to ask you to work instead. Blue Tulip (talk) 23:09, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I will. Thanks. Vincent Steenberg (talk) 08:13, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reinier Pauw[edit]

Ik heb vandaag een pagina aangemaakt over Reynier Pauw op de engelse Wikipedia. Nu zie ik dat de categorie:Reinier Pauw, bijna niet te wijzigen is, tenzij je er verstand van hebt. Als je alle Reynier Pauw's die naar rechts kijken verplaatst en achterelkaar zie je dat het steeds om dezelfde man en afbeelding gaat. Een kijkt naar links, dat is ook Reynier Pauw (1564-1636) maar dan gespiegeld. Dan blijft zijn zoon Reinier R. Pauw (1593-1676) over en die was heer van Ter Horst. In de 17e eeuw werd ook al gerotzooid met afbeeldingen. MvgTaksen (talk) 14:17, 16 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message!
Category name is unable to change, hence I just moved two pictures to Category:Pauw family. Blue Tulip (talk) 14:47, 16 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
