What is "High-resolution"? What is the criterium? Please add a definition. Now everybody can claim that his/her photos are hig-resolution. JopkeB (talk) 12:30, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone? Tukka (talk) 01:35, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@JopkeB and Tukka: "high-resolution" seems to be subjective/relative term. We haven't category:Low-resolution. If this category is useful, then this probably should be automatically done not manually (I presume bots can classify files "by pixels per inch" or something like this) Estopedist1 (talk) 07:06, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Estopedist1: Thanks for your contribution. Yes, this may be a solution. But I don't know enough about pixels to propose a concrete number. By the way, for your information: there is a Category:Images of low quality. I use it incidently for really bad images (mostly also with low resolution) which may not be deleted. So this category could function as the opposite of high resolution. JopkeB (talk) 13:06, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Category:High-resolutionMove to/Rename asCategory:High-resolution images
regardless of what standard we set for what counts as 'high', it should be renamed to make it clear this category is for capturing images that meet the standard.

@JopkeB, Tukka, and Estopedist1: Any comments on the above proposal by @Joshbaumgartner? Sbb1413 (he) (talkcontribs) 09:06, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I am OK with renaming as proposed by Josh. But please do not close this discussion before we have a clear description. JopkeB (talk) 11:07, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
