Category talk:British children's writers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Should this category perhaps be revived? Category:American children's writers seems to be quite well-populated and I'm sure this one could do just as well. [[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 15:45, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Why is English separate from British? Seems very arbitrary. I'm guessing there would be more objection to bringing in Welsh and Scottish, but perhaps for ease of use that should be dome as well... Any thoughts?--Natcase 05:55, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

I find it confusing (as a relative newcomer to Wikipedia) that there are categories for both British and English. As an Englishwoman myself, I incline to having English, Scottish, Welsh and NOT British, but if there are strong feelings elsewhere to have British I think Scottish and Welsh should disappear as well as English. But to me that would be like having a North Amercian Category without separate categories for Canada, Mexico and USA - which has already appropriated American writers... --Abbeybufo 13:29, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
