Category talk:Superheroes by name
What's with this "and her [or his] cast" bit?
[edit]I was putting stuff into what I thought was a Wonder Woman supercat, for later subcatting.
It turns out Category:Wonder Woman redirects Category:Wonder Woman and her cast.
Maybe it's my ignorance, but I don't get this "and her cast" bit.
It turns out this is the case for these too:
Category:Superman redirects to Category:Superman and his cast
Category:Batman redirects to Category:Batman and his cast
Category:Spiderman redirects to Category:Spider-Man and his cast
Category:Captain America redirects to Category:Captain America and his cast
Category:Iron Man redirects to Category:Iron Man and his cast
Category:Thor (Marvel Comics) redirects to Category:Thor (Marvel Comics) and his cast
If someone has a drawing, a pic of someone in a costume, or the like, of a superhero, why not put into a general superhero cat—like the first of each of these couplings, likely for latter subcatting?
Have Category:Superman, Category:Batman, Category:Spiderman, and Category:Thor (Marvel Comics) as the main cats, then subcat into things, including whatever movies and TV series, and maybe subcats of other media too—plays, indie movies, videos, et al, and then have "and her/his cast" cats for whatever characters, actors, producers, directors, financiers, soundtrack musicians, etc.

- @DMBFFF: seems to be strange. Redirects were done by one anonym, user:Torsch and user:Nightscream--Estopedist1 (talk) 06:08, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- The general cat name is intended to convey that it is for material pertaining not only to the character in question, but also its supporting cast, such as supporting characters, closely associated villains, etc. This way Thor on his cast, for example is the category in which you'd also put material on Loki, Sif, Balder, Heimdal, Jane Foster, the Absorbing Man, etc. Nightscream (talk) 13:25, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
- Oh, okay. That sounds like a good explanation. Thanks. :) DMBFFF (talk) 23:36, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
