This discussion of one or several categories is now closed. Please do not make any edits to this archive.
Can we have a definition/description of and/or criteria for "VIews of Amsterdam"? There are now far too many photos in this category that I think do not belong here. My proposal:
- Overview of at least several streets (just one or two streets, a bridge and a canal is not enough)
- preferable from a high viewpoint, like a tower, roof or a high bridge
- there are no other objects in close-up on the photo, the main subject of the photo should be the (wide) view, not something in the foreground of the photo.

ːCompletely agree. I noticed that some pictures of Amsterdam are highly overcategorized. I'll do my best to remove the redundant categoriesː this is one I encountered a lot at files that do not comply with your (logical̠ standards. I'll work on it.

- Thanks, User:Jeff5102, for your reaction and your efforts to make Commons better. I'll wait another two weeks to see whether there are other opinions and then I'll make the changes. JopkeB (talk) 04:28, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
