This category is a subclass of specific countries

[edit]

Category:Logos in Arabic is included in Category:Visual arts of Algeria, Category:Visual arts of the Palestinian territories, Category:Visual arts of Saudi Arabia, an all the categories where Arabic is main language. Same case as the currencies, for example Category:Euro is included in Category:Money of Austria, Category:Money of Belgium, Category:Money of Cyprus, and 18 more countries.

Category:Arabic language is part of Category:Languages of Bahrain, Category:Languages of Egypt, Category:Languages of Eritrea, and 17 more countries. Since Category:Logos is a subclass of Category:Visual arts, this sub-Category:Logos in Arabic affects all the countries speaking Arabic. Similar classification to Category:Logos in English, Category:Logos in French, Category:Logos in German, etc. -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:03, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Basile Morin: "Logos in Arabic" can be also in Sweden. Hence, country categories are invalid. Category:Euro is bad example, because it is strictly related to certain countries. Although, you can take images of euros in USA or Australia--Estopedist1 (talk) 04:51, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Languages vs origins
In many countries like Belgium, Switzerland, Singapore, or Algeria, that have several official languages (see Standard Algerian Berber as an example for Algeria), it is helpful to distinguish Category:Logos of Algeria from Category:Logos in Arabic, and reciprocally. So that, when users are looking for a specific logo and don't know the origin, they can find it through this classification, instead of believing the logo doesn't exist. I don't think the related categories are crowded to the point to avoid that extra support.
So many categories overlap all the time, the general classification is far from being a tree structure. Almost all the categories here have several parents and several sub-cats. And this is why Arabic language is included in 20 countries, and Category:Kabyle language is also part of Category:Languages of Algeria. Concerning the logos on Commons, we can find them either by language, or by country -- Basile Morin (talk) 06:16, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
