Why is this category named in Spanish rather than in English? It would appear to be, effectively, "Human trophy heads in Nazca culture" (though it is lacking most relevant parent categories). Also, why was Category:Shrunken heads made a subcategory? What would a shrunken head from New Guinea, for example, have to do with Nazca culture? Jmabel ! talk 16:33, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jmabel, Shrunken heads are a subcategory of trophy heads: both have been removed from the body, modified and are exhibited. Shrunken heads are trophy heads without the bones. I am checking the categories. It can be named in English. Cheers, --Cbrescia (talk) 16:42, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Right, but if Category:Cabeza trofeo is a subcategory of Category:Nazca culture, then how can all shrunken heads belong in a subcategory of Category:Cabeza trofeo? - Jmabel ! talk 16:53, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have renamed the category to English, put the category in 'Severed human heads', created the subcategory 'Nazca trophy heads' and tagged the category in Spanish 'Cabezas trofeo' for speedy deletion. If there is something I missed to be corrected please let me know. Thanks for your observations. Best, --Cbrescia (talk) 17:28, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Cbrescia: Thanks. I think that's a much better approach. - Jmabel ! talk 01:21, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Effectively moved to Category:Nazca trophy heads. - Themightyquill (talk) 06:56, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
