Does this seem like overcategorization to anyone else? --Yair rand (talk) 07:23, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Personally, delete, overspecific. Let's not subdivide to infinity. Mglovesfun (talk) 09:38, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

I could see it being used to categorize specific winds of the earth. -- Prince Kassad 14:40, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Föhn? Mglovesfun (talk) 14:44, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

For example. Look at w:Category:Wind and you will see that this category certainly has potential, but (like many of our topical categories) is underused. -- Prince Kassad 15:08, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

No, I don’t think so. Added a couple dozen terms to Category:Wind. Better? — Robin 18:30, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Keep until this is proposed as a part of larger flattening of the category for weather, which also contains categories Category:Rain, Category:Snow, and Category:Clouds. The category for wind now has 82 entries, which is not too bad. A comparison to other topical categories should be made. The rhetorical allusion to subdivision to infinity is rather unconvincing to me. --Dan Polansky 08:42, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Abstain, per above. Mglovesfun (talk) 17:52, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Kept. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:01, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
