I think Category:Computer and video game franchises and Category:Computer and video games by company need to be merged. -- ssd 07:09, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
I think it could be created a new category Category:Video game franchises by genre under Category:Video game franchises, where we could have for example Category:Platform video game franchises, Category:Racing video game franchises... If we do this we can have in each category under Category:Video games by genre the category that contains the franchises that correspond to this genre. For example, inside the category Category:Racing video games we could put the category Category:Racing video game franchises and move the categories Burnout games, Driver series, Grand Turismo series, Mario Kart games, Need for Speed games, Project Gotham Racing series... from Category:Racing video games to Category:Racing video game franchises. Please talk to me if you think it is a good idea or if you don't understand what I mean -- Aliuken ( talk) 14:51, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
has too many subcategories (368, at last count). I’ll move most or all of them into Category:Wikipedia categories named after video game franchises. Okay?-- Solomonfromfinland ( talk) 02:38, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
I notice that there is a tendency for video game franchise articles to use this category alongside any of the categories from "Category:Video game franchises by year". Are they supposed to co-exist, or is that a classic example of
overcategorization? Sorry, but I cannot tell what the standard is here.
