Category talk:Sculptures at the Pancha Rathas
This subcategory mostly just replicates the containing category. Anybody looking for reliefs and sculptures will find them right away at Pancha Rathas, so why do we need the subcategory?

- Hi, in short: no it does not replicate. Reasons to be establised, among the logical ones referring to categorizing, to avoid 'overwhelming' of its mother categories (Mahambalipuram/Rathas), and to improve usability for users outside of the Wikimedia Commons project, as well to categorize more adequate p.e. art of India by period (see categories of the subs), and also to avoid 'overwhelming' of the accordingly categories, to realize access from "Mahabliparum" monuments to accordingly sculptures of the monuments, to differ the 'rock-temples' (Rathas) from just the 'sculptures' surrounding the five (Pancha) Rathas, and so on, etc. btw: normally really not interested to discuss such matters as categories etc. Kindly regards, Roland zh (talk) 00:40 [edit ~01:58], 28 May 2015 (UTC)
The 'Elephant,' 'Lion,' and 'Nandi' categories are listed as subcategories of 'Sculptures' and also of 'Pancha Rathas.' But 'Sculptures' is already listed as a subcategory of 'Pancha Rathas.' This is logical overcategorization. It needs to be fixed. What is your advice? Michael D. Gunther (talk) 18:02, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
- Since (The Lion, Elephant , And A Bull) are listed monuments under ASI code N-TN-C41, I suggest that they should be separated from other reliefs and sculptures under a new category so that Template:ASI Monument can be used for one category only. - Jazze7 (talk) 13:49, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
