→Algebra Terms: reply to Dean
::Probably not. There's also a [[geometry terms]] page, which can equally be deleted since there's already a <s>[[:Category:Geometry Terms]]</s> [[:Category:Geometry terms]] which uses Geometry index (and doesn't follow the MoS for categories). Continuing this line of reasoning, are these sorts of indices much more useful than categories? They seem somewhat redundant. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 07:31, 5 February 2009 (EST)

:::I think the indices are better than a category of terms for each subject. If you look at Category:Navigation box, you will see there are many different indices, Template:Algebra Index, Template:American Index, Template:Ancient Index, etc. Some of them don't have a subject terms page; they just have individual terms pages (i.e. Ancient Terms, Chemistry Terms, etc.) We should have some further discussions on this subject. --[[User:DeanS|DeanS<sup>talk</sup>]] 07:52, 5 February 2009 (EST)

::::I think my wording wasn't clear in it's implication, sorry. I definitely do like indices better than something like [[:Category:Algebra Terms]], but my question was whether we even needed the index if we have the [[:Category:Algebra]], which lists most/all of the terms anyway and has many more to boot. I would gladly keep discussing this with you, either here or by email. Just let me know. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 10:55, 8 February 2009 (EST)
