Forum:Category:2008 in rugby union

Please have a look at Category:2008 in rugby union and its parent categories etc.

Related categories for different subjects
At present it comes straight from Wikipedia. Easy. Readymade century of them just waiting to be copied.

But we don't want all the related categories for different activities such as "2008 in music". What we should be wanting instead is country rugby union categories such as Category:2008 in rugby union in New Zealand and regional categories such as Category:2008 in rugby union in the Southern Hemisphere. That should be easy to organise with a bit of tweaking of the WP templates and more detailed instructions for use. — Robin Patterson (Talk) 04:53, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Parent categories
Parent categories need not be the same either. "2008 in sports" is probably not the best: how about just "2008"? Most of what we will put in "2008" will be about rugby union, but other things affecting the game can be included, and I expect most of them will not be sports, so that Category:2008 in sports would be very unbalanced and a waste of a "step" for anyone "drilling down" the category tree. Pandemics and wars, for example. Category:2008 in rugby union would be the prime subcategory of Category:2008, listed at the top, and the others can fit in as they appear. — Robin Patterson (Talk) 04:53, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
