List of solo cello pieces by composer: J

This vote for deletion is for the entire series. I don't understand why they couldn't be represented (much cleaner) as a category. Masterhomer 08:17, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Comment: This was apparently never listed on vfd, so I'm putting it on today's page. —Korath (Talk) 03:15, Apr 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, turning this into a category would turn it into Category:Solo cello composers, which is not the same thing. Kappa 03:29, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, lists and categories serve different purposes. RickK 05:11, Apr 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: Can someone explain the difference and significance of the lists and categories? It would seem to me that categories would only list those composes who are significant enough for their own page while a list could have everyone, notable or not, entered within it. This then begs the question of why would we want to have a list of composers with those not significant enough to have their own page? No vote at this time. --Fuzzball!

    • Well, yes. The idea behind categories is to deprecate (non-annotated) lists. The reality is that both lists and cats have some functionality that the other doesn't, so in practice many topics are covered in both a list and a cat. This seems undesirable, and is due for some serious revision, but that would require an upgrade to the server software first. Radiant_* 10:13, Apr 10, 2005 (UTC)
    • The whole point of (annotated) lists is to organize and merge things that are inherently short, or extremely interrelated. For instance Orc (Middle-earth) as an (annotated) list is more comprehensive than short articles on each individual orc.
    • Of course such lists require (some) watching, because if I write my own cello piece then that does not warrant me listing myself there.
    • Oh yes, and I'd like this list kept, but given the size of each lists, merge the lot of them into a single article rather than 26 of them. Radiant_* 10:15, Apr 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Lists can include links to articles that haven't been written yet. And they can additional info to entries which cats can't. Keep per RickK. Mgm|(talk) 10:18, Apr 10, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge those lists into one, given the small number of entries. Martg76 12:18, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Pointless list. There's already a (poorly named) Category:List of solo cello pieces, which is quite sufficient. --Angr/comhrá 16:19, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
