- Category:Buildings designed by Albert Kahn to
Category:Albert Kahn buildingsCategory:Albert Kahn (architect) buildings – C2C within Category:Buildings and structures by American architects. – Fayenatic London 22:46, 3 January 2019 (UTC)- @Fayenatic london: This should be renamed to Category:Albert Kahn (architect) buildings, as the article is located at Albert Kahn (architect).

- Opposed Look, this is another one where the article title's disambiguator is not necessary in a subsidiary category. We have Category:Amazon hardware and Category:Amazon mythology, and no one is going to think the former belongs to the river and the latter belongs to the company. No one is going to think these buildings relate to the journalist or the banker; Category:Albert Kahn buildings is fine. UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:24, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
- @UnitedStatesian:. Much better to apply the naming policy consistently, and include the disambiguator, than to have editors wondering about whether someone has decided that in one particular case the disambiguator is not needed for now. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:24, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
- I disagree, in fact consistency argues for leaving the disambiguator off of all subsidiary categories, as we have Category:Georgia in the Roman era, Category:Ford vehicles, Category:Civil War defenses of Washington, D.C., many, many others. In fact the disambiguator is a big negative on subsidiary categories, (not just becasue it vios. WP:CONCISE) because Category:Albert Kahn (architect) buildings makes the user think there must also be Category:Albert Kahn (something else) buildings, which of course there never will be, just like Category:Georgia (country) in the Roman era would immediately make one think wow, there must by Category:Georgia (state) in the Roman era too, that can't be right. I give editors much more credit that they will continue to be able to figure out the difference. UnitedStatesian (talk) 13:47, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
