DAB to Category:Bark (botany), there is some discussion about if needed and what sub categories this should also be done with. Crouch, Swale (talk) 11:46, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
- Are there other meanings this is getting confused with? --Auntof6 (talk) 16:38, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
- I also don't understand the rationale. It seems unlikely to get confused with Category:Dogs barking, though we could link to that category, just in case. Then again, there is a dab page at en:Bark. - Themightyquill (talk) 21:07, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
- Sorry I forgot to link the discussion, it was here, and note that the WP article at w:Bark (sound). Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:40, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

- @Auntof6 and Themightyquill: as I noted "Bark" is a DAB page on Wikipedia and there are numerous other uses of "Bark" here so I'm not sure why this is controversial, can we just move this and create a DAB at Category:Bark? Until I converted Category:Barking into a DAB it was a redirect to the town in London. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:12, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the edits to Category:Barking which undoubtedly make sense. I'm still not totally convinced by the need to DAB Category:Bark unless inappropriate media is ending up there, but given the dab page on wikipedia, I don't feel so strongly as to object if you're determined to make the change. - Themightyquill (talk) 15:00, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
- I agree with you that the noise is usually "barking" but indeed given the other uses and the DAB on Wikipedia which is usually in its self enough to justify a DAB here. Anyway while I didn't find any incorrect images its entirely possible for it to collect them from the sound or even the other places. In addition I'd point out this comment about Category:Barques.
