this cat is now doubled with Cloisters of Sant'Antonio (Padua) and redundant and should be deleted Oursana (talk) 00:16, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cloisters of Sant'Antonio (Padua) was created in 2016, 4 years after Category:Arcades of Sant'Antonio (Padua). For me it's ok, the latter can be deleted. I see that Cloisters of Sant'Antonio (Padua) is part of the Cloisters in Padua, that should be included in Arcades in Padua. Carlo58s (talk) 01:23, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Even if these categories currently contain the same thing (which they don't quite, because one has an individual file that the other doesn't), they should both be kept. Cloisters and arcades are not the same thing, and neither is a subset of the other: an arcade (architecturally speaking) is a row of arches, and a cloister is a covered walkway with one open side that may or may not be formed as an arcade. I think the categorization is probably OK as it is, although some of the cloister images may not show the arcades. --Auntof6 (talk) 01:48, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
