Category:Film score composers by film series

Is this category really necessary? Trade (talk) 22:01, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Well, as it is, no. -- Blackcat 22:20, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No, it isn't. This is yet another IMDb-style "associating people with films" category; I think there's a pretty broad consensus at this point that these aren't appropriate on Commons. Omphalographer (talk) 18:55, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Omphalographer: indeed, on the topic of UGC sites, I am rather strict: they shouldn't be used as source , nor adopted as model, nor even linked or used on 'Data, because they contain data which is largely not reliable, not subjected to review, not sourced, and several more "not"s. -- Blackcat 10:10, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The issue here isn't sourcing, though. Even if this information were fully sourced, it wouldn't be appropriate for Commons because it's simply outside the project's scope. Omphalographer (talk) 14:06, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
