Category talk:Screenshots

I don´t think so, if it is a screenshot, it belongs to this category. Like Category:Screenshots is the main one and then the different categories like Biome or Redstone etc. are just subcategories, like more precise division. But all screenshots should stay in main one, because if those were not there, then it would be just weird. You would be surprised how many times people actually don´t put images in Screenshots category, I have 6,430 edits (not much, I know) on this wiki, and I dare to say that more than 2,000 of them is just puting images into correct categories. So I think that if we would like to make people remember which category to use, it would a total chaos, right now I dare to say that at least 85% users here remember to put a Screenshots category when they upload new image. --Goro488 (talk) 18:59, 26 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Then why aren't all images categorized directly into Category:Images? It would be a waste of time to add the category to all images. Adding the redundant categorization would also cause problems for those who are looking for a screenshot that is not in one of the subcategories, since they would have to go through all the screenshots that are categorized further. Placing a page into a screenshot subcategory implies that it is a screenshot. Fadyblok240 (talk) 16:21, 14 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Well, because Image and screenshot are not the same, you can categorize Art in Images, but Art is not a screenshot. That is the main difference between those 2. And people having problems finding a screenshot that is not in one of the subcategories? Well, there are 2 problems, first, as I said above, many people don´t even categorize images they upload, sometimes not even put a license there. Second, maybe even add more subcategories, like for example Menu´s screenshots, Cave/Underground screenshots etc. There are thousands of images on this wiki, so finding a particular image can take some time. But most of the time, the image is tied with article, so I think than trying to find image here, it is better and faster to look for the article it is connected to. For example I look for a sunset over a jungle, I try to search for sunset or jungle articles, than trying to browse Screenshots or Biome screenshots categories. --Goro488 (talk) 16:34, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
