Changing FS category names without discussion

[edit]

Please do not change category names such as Category:FS ETR 300 and Category:FS ETR 400 without any discussion. You tagged these and other categories for deletion, using the Template:bad name, which asserts that "ETR 300" and "ETR 400" (without a period/full stop) are "incorrect names", but in fact they are not incorrect names. It is possible they are older names (I do not know), but it is not necessary that Commons categories use the current form of a train-model designation. In Wikipedia, "ETR 300" – not "ETR.300" – is the common form of this model designation, and it has been called ETR 300 for many years, in many books and magazine articles. Wikipedia has articles about the ETR 300 in 7 different languages, and all of them except the Italian one use "ETR 300", not "ETR.300". This means that the people who edited those articles agreed that the version without a period is the most common name. Commons categories about Italian subjects are not used only by Italians, but also by people writing in other languages, and categories that are used by multiple versions of Wikipedia (different languages) should not be changed without discussion. I have asked an administrator to undelete the categories you marked for deletion, because they were not incorrect. Steve Morgan (talk) 11:32, 20 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
