Comment on Call for Feedback on Category Change Proposal

    I totally don't remember DC and Marvel being suggested as subcategories. Was this on the wrangling list or in the cat change group?

    I don't see how 'Cartoons' and 'Comics' are somehow more ambiguous and unacceptable than 'TV shows' or 'Movies.

      You likely had access to only a portion of the feedback the workgroup received, in all feedback rounds — including the internal one -- but maybe I'm mistaken. I haven't checked all the feedback compilations again.

      Cartoons and Comics wouldn't be ambiguous if we included all cartoons and comics in them (including manga), like we include all TV Shows or Movies in their categories, but then they would be less useful as a subdivision of the larger list.
