Category talk:Computer networks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Too many articles; most should be filed into appropriate subcategories. -- Beland 20:27, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

This category should be called 'computer networking'. This is the name of the academic discipline, textbooks and how it appears in any taxonomy. TreveX^talk 23:41, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

TreveX's suggestion is good. Someone recently created Category:Computer networking and it redirects here. I propose that the "Computer networking" category be moved into this positions of the networking tree, making it the root category. "Computer networks" would become of subcategory of "Computer networking." The current subcategories of "Computer networks" would be moved to "Computer networking" as appropriate. The articles in "Computer networks," which I am currently going through, need to be redistributed to the correct categories anyway. Only articles on specific computer networks would remain in the "Computer networks" category. If there are no major objections and someone hasn't done it already, I'll move the categories in about a week. JonHarder 22:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

I have now moved the last few remaining articles and sub-categories to Category:Computer networking, and redirected this one to that. Hope this clean-up is okay. Mange01 22:10, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

This category is valid when we are listing the networks themselves rather than referring to the academic discipline. Hpcanswers 11:16, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

redundant and confusing category.
