Category:YYYY events in Finland by city

[edit]

I request all "YYYY events in Finland by city" categories to be deleted. At the moment, Helsinki is the only city having year-event categories, so "YYYY events in Finland by city" categories are unnecessary and harmful because they just add one more layer of categorization. "YYYY events in Helsinki" categories can be categorized directly under "YYYY events in Finland" instead. Moreover, I don't see year-event categories useful for any other Finnish city since the low number of event categories or images. (Again, having categories with only one or two sub-categories or images in them just makes finding the images harder.)

At the moment such categories are:

I came to this discussion because of Category:Events in Turku by year. I started adding some categories, but find that the ones thinking there is a need for this category should also take care of its maintenance. After half a year there was only one subcategory (2003). Without this category, the events are easily found as subcategories of Category:Turku in XXXX, via the new category hierarchy they are not found, as they are not added there. --LPfi (talk) 10:17, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Category:YYYY events in Helsinki

[edit]

I request all pre-2000 "YYYY events in Helsinki" categories to be deleted. At the moment, the number of pictures (or categories) of events in Helsinki – and actually the number of any pictures of Finland – from that time is so low in Commons, that having this kind of categories is harmful because they just make finding images harder.

At the moment such categories are:
