[edit] Spain

It doen't need to be in the Spain, nor Catalonia categories. Everything in Category:Vallès Occidental is also in Spain, and in Catalonia. -- Prove It (talk) 20:49, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I strongly disagree. In this case, we think it's appropiate to add both the categories of Catalonia and Spain to the article. Anyway if you think it well, EVERY CATEGORY in the wikipedia can be suitable to a higher category. Then, according to what you are saying, we should only put the ultimate (the most specific) category. But that doesn't clarify anything. We could put an article talking about a museum of San Pepito del Morlaco to the category Interesting things to see in San Pepito del Morlaco. And Interesting things to see in San Pepito del Morlaco would go into the category San Pepito del Morlaco, which would go into the category Municipalities in Barcelona, which would go into Barcelona province [...] which would go into Things in the Earth. But it's pretty obvious that just adding the category Interesting things to see in San Pepito del Morlaco doesn't clarify anything, right? Then what do we do? We add: Interesting things to see in San Pepito del Morlaco, Province of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, for example, and so it clarifies A LOT what are we talking about in the article. It is right that all these categories are linked, but what's the problem? Everything is linked in the vital circle. So then what do we do? It's like trying to draw a continuous function: you must draw the infinite dots that form the function. So as that is sometimes quite unviable, what we do is to draw a discrete signal, taking just the most significative dots of the route. Onofre Bouvila 18:35, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
By that logic, everything in Spain should be added to the Spain category. Clearly that wouldn't work. Look at the other members of Category:Vallès Occidental. None of them are in the Spain category. See Wikipedia:Categorization and subcategories. -- Prove It (talk) 04:08, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
