Category tree[edit]

It may be just too much OCD of my part, but I would actually like to keep this category almost empty, with almost everything within a subcategory, in order to make all the images more organized. Some of the images within this category are currently misplaced, some are here only because the ArenaNet image template has some issues (as mentioned here), and some are here because there isn't a better place where to keep them. I would like to propose the following category tree:
ArenaNet images (all user images would still be here, in order to make it easy for users to tag their images)

  • Animations
    • Pet attacks animations
    • Skill animations
      • Profession skill animations (eight subcategories here)
  • Concept art (everything together since there's no reliable way to sort them)
  • Icons
    • Logos (for things like this image)
    • Skill icons
      • Profession skill icons (eight subcategories here)
    • Website icons
  • Renders
  • Screenshots
    • Guild Wars 2 Teaser Trailer screenshots
    • The Races of Tyria trailer screenshots
    • (More categories as more trailers are released)
    • Website screenshots
    • Guild Wars 1 images
  • Staff pictures (for images like this; there's actually quite many staff pictures here)

Such division would also remove the discrepancy between having "ArenaNet concept art" and "Screenshots" as category names, with one having the ArenaNet prefix and the other don't - since everything is within the ArenaNet images category, having the ArenaNet prefix would be redundant, so it would be omitted from everything.

Works. - Lucian Shadowborn User Aios sig.png 02:42, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
One addendum: Icons->Trait Icons->9 Subs (Generic (i.e Vitality) + 8 Professions). Otherwise, I think we're good. Aquadrizzt (talk)(contribs) 02:47, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
Not meaning to be a spoilsport, but this discussion is semi-continued over here. :) - Infinite - talk 10:02, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Summary[edit]

Is there anywhere where the uploading categorization rules are summarized? I.e., "<year> <month> <name>", or "User_<username>", etc. If so, I think it should be linked to on the image upload page.-- Shew 18:16, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
