Object to the rename proposed currently; adding "New York" to the category name just makes it unnecessarily longer, given that there aren't other institutions with this name (and even if there were, the NYC one would certainly be presumed in any instance), and it would place this category out of line with all the other Metropolitan Museum of Art subcategories. That other Monet by museum subcategories have cities in the names is not dispositive of whether this one should also; it should depend on whether the city is necessary to identify the museum.

 Oppose Length of the name is not relevant, consistency with parent categories is. To get the name changed, one should start at the top level parent category: "Metropolitan Museum of Art". --Foroa (talk) 17:19, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Support But the change is just to provide consistency with the parent category: Category:Paintings by Claude Monet by museum. Marac (talk) 22:22, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
