The problem is then where to put what. [[Tournament]] can be [[:category:combat]] but [[Tournament styles]] might be best as [[:category:combat (SCA)]]. [[SCA sword]] is [[:category:weapons]] which is a subpart of [[:category:combat]] but should it also be a part of [[:category:combat (SCA)]]? This is the sort of issue I was having. Those examples are but the tip of the phalanx. I have no problems with cross-categorisation but this has to limited, rather than making almost every member of one category also appear in another category.

This category has always given me concern, which is why I have never defined it or made many members for it. There are many possible members for it, but I wonder if it should have a number of subcategories or be really subdivided. For instance, members could be

But we already have categories for

Should we be careful to break up the members into further SCA-specific categories? Should there be a general category:combat and a category:combat (SCA)?

Those are good ideas, Cian. I'd go for the subdivisions - what do other people think?

- Morgant 01:27, 12 Aug 2005 (CDT)

I agree. The category:combat (SCA) format works best for me too.

How about we have category:combat (historical), and category:combat (SCA)?
