This is with respect to Category:Annonaceae & Category:Annonaceae (Indexed). Could somebody educate me as to why we have two similar categories for each Plant family? Category Annonaceae already exists and some images are same while some are different in the indexed category. A person who searches the family category may not find all the images in one place. Cant we have ordering by using pages or subcategories for species instead.
The category page of 'Annonaceae (Indexed)' is itself part of 'Category:Plantae by family (Indexed)' which states that :
This category is for photos of plants which have been indexed in a plant family article.
What do they mean by indexed?
Do we have any kind of WikiProject on Commons for discussing such issues? Where can I converse with dedicated plant-image contributers?
Though I have listed Annonaceae (Indexed) for deletion, (I had to complete the procedure), I am looking for help in understanding rather than deletion of any categories.
