:Not exactly. If the only subjects in the image are characters who have their own categories, it's not used for those images because the categories are in this category.

Use of category[edit]
Is this category not to be used anymore on files and only be used as a root category for other categories? --Simpsons88 (Talk ☎️) 15:33, July 3, 2024 (EDT)
- Not exactly. If the only subjects in the image are characters who have their own categories, it's not used for those images because the categories are in this category. But if there are subjects in the image that don't have their own categories, then this category is used. The Solar Dragon 15:46, July 3, 2024 (EDT)
Template for all Simpsons appearing in an image[edit]
I have created a proposal in my userspace (User:MediocreUsername/Template:All Simpsons) for a template that can be put on images where all 5 of the main Simpsons appear in an image, as a possible way to reduce page size on file pages. Would this template be useful? MediocreUsername (talk) 12:05, August 28, 2024 (EDT)
- We actually had something like this in the past, but it was substituted into a page rather than used as a template. I ended up deleting this due to the fact I kept forgetting it existed, and nobody else used it to my knowledge. I feel that having the categories all on a page like they currently are is better than having a template placing them on a page. If you feel that having the template for substituting onto pages would be useful, I would be willing to add it again. The Solar Dragon 12:22, August 28, 2024 (EDT)
