Dear PierreBraun, as I know you as an expert in cacti I really appreciate you images. However, I have to ask you to respect Commons:Categories. Particularly, please don't over-categorize your images. If for instance in your File:Melocactus violaceus ssp. ritteri Bahia Brasil.jpg

• Category:Melocactus violaceus is correct,
• Category:Melocactus as parent category of Category:Melocactus violaceus additionally categorized is over-categorized and therefore wrong.
• Category:Cactaceae as parent category of Category:Melocactus violaceus additionally categorized is over-categorized and therefore wrong.

I'm looking forward to seeing more of your cactus images - better categorized. Greetings, -- Ies (talk) 09:06, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
