Incorrect subject categorisation[]
This is clearly sorted under Category:Alcoholic beverages, which I do not disagree with. This means, everything in it must qualify as one, if it is to be accurate. Putting all Butterbeer ingredients in it is not accurate, since its ingredients are separate from the drink itself; they simply do not qualify as alcoholic beverages (types of the drink). If the creator wanted to make this a topic themed category, then it should have been put under Category:Articles by topic and perhaps made even broader. Neither does the creator "own" the rights to this category, the whole wiki does. Once you publish something, the wiki owns it, not you. I or nobody else don't need to "discuss" making super simple changes to the category out of fear of upsetting its creator (neither does it qualify as a huge change in content), we are free to edit as we please.

- You've got a fair point, but I think it is appropriate there should be some sort of link to the ingredients going into it. Nicodafirenze (talk) 10:16, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- Then I think it ideally needs to be under Articles by topic then, since the ingredients are not alcohol. RedWizard98 (talk) 10:44, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- But the Butterbeer varieties should be neatly categorised as alcoholic drinks. RedWizard98 (talk) 11:08, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- When exactly did I say I "owned the rights to this category"? Your comments are genuinely feeling like a personal attack. Please, calm down. I agree with moving it to Category:Articles by topic but you didn't have to invent false statements just to make your argument. AD Vortigern (talk to me) 19:09, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- You have acted like nobody can alter this category by insisting only really you can define its usage. I also think moving this to articles by topic is a very unnecessary and undesirable idea, all because you insist on it containing Butterbeer ingredients. It would fine just without them, it's even a big change, only a small one. I was merely pointing out the inaccuracy of categorising non-alcohols under alcohol. This is way too minor to be made into a topic category (plus all those categories have to be hidden from normal view, something not really desirable here). It would work 100% fine without any of the ingredients, as they are not alcohol. RedWizard98 (talk) 20:46, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
