 Comment Hmm, please let me know if I did any problematic edit (move) before. Although I have no idea about it, some mistakes can happen in my thousands of edits per year. For now, I am a bit perplexed by your reason to support. So, I would like to request to reveal the intention of this comment. When I move a category, I always intend to conform to the commons' policies (refer to my explanation below about the edit pointed out this time). Thus, if there is an error in one of my edits, there is inevitably a high possibility that I made same mistakes in other categories. Therefore, your advise would be very helpful for me to make better edits. --Morio (talk) 09:50, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment It was one of my edits on/under the Category:Allegories of peace. There are many categories that have the names "Statue of Piece" (refer to the Category:Statues of peace). So, regardless of its official name, it is necessary to consider distinctions according to the policy Commons:Categories, I think. About the edit (move), I thought the original name (Category:Statue of Peace) was not enough to guess the subject, and then moved it to be able to be distinct from others (refer to the policy Commons:Rename a category). The edit (move) was due to that simple reason same as usual of my edits. Anyway, I have no intention of sticking to such simple edit, so I will cast no vote on this, leave judgment to the administrator and obey the conclusion at all. In case of the conclusion that such edit was inappropriate, it would be helpful for my next edits.
Leaving that aside, the comment "all this stautes don't create by Kim Unseong and Kim Seogyeong" sounds reasonable to me, and I think it is better to change the category name if there is a more appropriate name (again, I think it is better to keep consistency with other categories in the Category:Statues of peace). thanks, --Morio (talk) 09:50, 30 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Morio: See en:Statue of Peace. The "Statues of Peace" is official name, and it is distinguishing statue name. Thanks. --Garam (talk) 08:53, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your reply. I would like you to read my comment above carefully and consider it based on commons policy. It doesn't matter whether the name is official or not on this matter. Several other statues share the same name "Statue of Peace" and they also have categories in Commons. I think you can understand the situation easily by referring the Category:Statues of peace. thanks,--Morio (talk) 10:12, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
But other statues no have any main article in Wikipedia, unlike "Statue of Peace" (not "Statues of Peace"). Thanks. --Garam (talk) 16:28, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm concerned about your reply does not get the point. The problem is there are some other categories which share the same name in Wikimedia Commons. So, we wouldn't be able to distinguish between them if applying that name to only certain category. If there are no other category (like the article situation of EN Wikipedia), this problem would not occur, I think. I would like you to understand the situation of Wikimedia Commons. Again, although I don't object to move the category back, I think it is necessary to consider conflicts with the naming policy of Commons' categories. Actually, I have made a mistake recently in similar situation (Category:Things named after Avalon). So, there is a similar naming discussion there.--Morio (talk) 04:21, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done: The category has been moved back to its official name. --jdx Re: 12:09, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
