Astronomical asterisms vs Asterisms (RfC)

[edit]

Why is this category called "Astronomical asterisms"? The other meaningss of "asterism" don't seem like they would ever require categories. The astronomical meaning also far-eclipses the others in usage. It might be worthwhile to change this category to just "Category:Asterisms". If the other types should ever require their own category they could use the usual "Category:Asterisms (gemmology),"-style naming. Jason Quinn (talk) 18:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If this gets changed, it would probably require the help of a bot to purge the old tags. Jason Quinn (talk) 20:37, 8 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
