Sun/gold symbols[edit]

Hi. I think it's good you separated these out from 'solar symbol', but generally any contemporary solar symbol was used for gold. I think the only exception among the files in our cat is probably the biennial symbol, since that's specifically botanical. Kwamikagami (talk) 00:35, 14 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes, that will have to be addressed futurely: I think this and other such symbols should/could better categorized. That cat rename I made was only one small step in the right direction, I think, as I’m currently working on the modern element symbols instead, but it will be eventually picked up, by me or someone else. -- Tuválkin 00:45, 14 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yes, I don't think it matters, just wanted to be sure you were aware. It's just a label, and as long as people understand what we mean and don't clutter it up with other stuff, the label is unimportant. Kwamikagami (talk) 00:59, 14 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Boylarva99[edit]

Has boylarva99 answered you concerning your complaint? Or is he continuing without answering? JMK (talk) 23:29, 15 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I’ve had no contact from him concerning both matters where we interacted recently. I read your comment in his talk page concerning similar antics, though, and it seems that the has an habit of going around messing disparate categories with no sense nor accountability. Should you open a an AN/U report, please let me know so I can add to it. Meanwhile it seems safe to just revert his wrong edits — that worked for me before. -- Tuválkin 00:40, 16 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Red categories[edit]

Why are you adding nonexistent categories (e.g. Category:CSD letter combinations, Category:EYA letter combinations, Category:"Fm" standing for fermium etc.) to files? Leyo 16:32, 18 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Concerning the first two, the edit histories of the affected file pages will make it clear that this is me cleaning up previous miscategorization as part of a work in progess. Concerning fermium, it’s about me skipping by mistake one category out of 118 — thanks for letting me know. -- Tuválkin 16:44, 18 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
