Hello there! You removed
Category:Fantasy worlds from the
Gezeitenwelt article. I would like to explain why I think differently: The article is primarily about the novel series, not specifically about the fantasy world, true. But the world has the same name, is mentioned in the article as setting of the novels, and does, I guess, not warrant its own article for reasons of
notability. Anyone looking through the categories searching for fantasy worlds should therefore find the Gezeitenwelt article in Category:Fantasy worlds. What is your opinion?

Thanks for talking about this. My thought was that putting the article in the
Category:Fantasy worlds category was not entirely appropriate as it wasn't mainly about a world. Most fantasy books/series are set in their own "world" and therefore most articles in the
Category:Fantasy books by series could go in the
Category:Fantasy worlds category. I think the
Category:Fantasy worlds category should be for articles that are mainly about an entire "world" or universe and that include things like history, peoples, cultures, not just geography. I'm not saying that
Gezeitenwelt article is better or worse than any other article in that category; it just happened to be the one I clicked on last. (Also, since it is really about a series, the year/novel categories aren't appropriate either.) --
