Category:Post-World War II firearms of Armenia No other country has so detailed Post WWII fireams category. I doubt this is usefull as we don't have so much rifles comming from Armenia. Sanandros (talk) 20:47, 20 March 2019 (UTC) We also have "Category:Post-World War II firearms of the Armenian Republic". As I have said before, we should prohibit IPs to open cats. --E4024 (talk) 00:54, 21 March 2019 (UTC) But also that one is not a good cat. Republic of Armenia exists since the 1990es and we don't have similar cats for the US.--Sanandros (talk) 05:50, 21 March 2019 (UTC) @E4024 and Sanandros: Closed (subsumed into broader discussion at Commons:Categories for discussion/2019/08/Category:Post-World War II weapons) Josh (talk) 19:36, 22 August 2019 (UTC) This discussion of one or several categories is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive. Category:Post-World War II firearms of Georgia For 5 firearms we don't need so detailed cat. Sanandros (talk) 20:51, 20 March 2019 (UTC) I agree with you but we have seen two cats being opened for one file only, and when I propose to delete they find supporters for that sort of cats... Whatever, I agree and support deletion of this cat. --E4024 (talk) 04:09, 24 March 2019 (UTC) Agreed with deletion.

Category:Post-World War II firearms of Turkey Now the IP begins to do this post ww2 cats also with turkey.- Sanandros (talk) 05:53, 21 March 2019 (UTC) See Commons:Categories for discussion/2019/03/Category:Post-World War II firearms of Armenia.--Sanandros (talk) 05:54, 21 March 2019 (UTC) Delete all those cats; a serial by some IP. I already got deleted two nonsense cats. --E4024 (talk) 13:02, 21 March 2019 (UTC) Agreed, delete all 'post-WWII weapons' categories.

Please do not make any edits to this archive. Category:Post-World War II tanks I've created this category to house all the similarly named sub-categories. But personally, I'd rather see these broken down into century than an ambigious "post-war" scheme. The same applies to all the "post-world war ii military vehicles" and "armored fighting vehicles" categories that were created as parents. It also applies to Category:Post-World War II weapons. Themightyquill (talk) 08:32, 25 March 2019 (UTC) Delete including other 'post-WWII' categories. Vehicles can be categorized by year or decade based on year introduced, built, or depicted, but 'post-war' is ambiguous.

Delete. Organizing weapons by time should be done by century/decade/year as appropriate. Grouping all weapons (made/developed/used?) after or before a particular event is not useful. Josh (talk) 19:33, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

The discussion originates from Commons:Categories for discussion/2019/03/Category:Post-World War II firearms of Armenia. But untill recently we didn't had at all any time related firearm category.--Sanandros (talk) 19:48, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

Yep, I've added that and the other related discussions above for quick reference. Josh (talk) 20:37, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

No opposition, Joshbaumgartner, if you want to make this change. - Themightyquill (talk) 12:26, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
