Category name in IG
[dezie ebe o si]In the IG Wikipedia, this category needs a name in Asụ̀sụ̀ Ìgbò (the Igbo language). This is done by a Move action. Then the 12 pages need to be added manually by changing Òtù:Governor of a Nigerian State to the new name. Deborahjay (ṅkátá) 20:49, 13 Disemba 2022 (UTC)
- @Deborahjay just curious here. After moving the category and all pages in it to the correct Igbo equivalent, do I blank and mark for deletion or? King ChristLike (ṅkátá) 11:10, 23 Mee 2025 (UTC)
- @King ChristLike - using the Move function (Wepu) for the old category creates a REDIRECT to the new, correct name. It also (if I recall correctly) substitutes the new name in the WikiData item. However, the pages in the category need to be repositioned in the new one, for which the HotCat tool can be used. This will effectively "blank" the content and no deletion of the category name is required. Try it and see! Deborahjay (ṅkátá) 12:07, 23 Mee 2025 (UTC)
- I see. I’ll try that next. There’s lots of categories to fix. King ChristLike (ṅkátá) 12:18, 23 Mee 2025 (UTC)
- If that's the case - do try one and be sure it accomplishes what you intend before proceeding. I have two major matters to raise about categories, but will do so on your User talk page. Or perhaps to write to the igwiki User group in Meta? Deborahjay (ṅkátá) 13:04, 23 Mee 2025 (UTC)
- Whichever you choose is fine. Ping me if you decide to open the discussion on meta. And yes, the redirecting worked. Thanks! King ChristLike (ṅkátá) 13:53, 23 Mee 2025 (UTC)
