Silent films category
Hello! I'm sorry, I have some question: we have at least eleven (maybe more) pages about silent movies:
http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/And_Quiet_...hiy_Don)_(1930) http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Shoulder_Arms http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/The_Gold_Rush http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/City_Lights http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Great_Trai...ery,_The_(1903) http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Wings http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Four_Sons http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/New_Babylon,_The http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Verdun:_Visions_of_History http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Storm_Over..._Chingis-Khana) http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/That_Night's_Wife Maybe, it's useful, to create category for silent films? |

I've said it before, I think we have too many categories as is.

Some of us don't mind sorting through them. Besides, as a wiki project, users can usually add the right ones to a film eventually, or put up some sort of flag in the database that says "needs categorization," similar to the "Incomplete" template or "Under Construction" template.

I agree with fcm personally. There's 270-odd categories as it is.. Do we really need another one for just a dozen or so movies? Granted if you eliminate specific countries and directors and what have you that might get chopped in half, even then, that's quite a lot of genres and qualities and other identifiers to catalogue a film with.. I'm sure most if not all of these silent films fit one or more of them. Hell I'm personally not sure we need a Black & White category, but at least there's a considerable number of films there (almost 500 it seems). A category for a dozen or so movies just seems superfluous. If fact I wonder if we should set a minimum film number requirement for categories and start clearing some of the more sparse ones out. Some of them - particularly with certain directors - only have something like three or four films, which again, just seems superfluous unless we're talking about a considerably well-known/renowned director who just hasn't done a lot of films with firearms in them or something.
Just my thoughts, of course. Bah.
