Suggest mass removal of inapplicable items in the Commons category game

Issue #213 new
Nick W created an issue

Hi, I've been really enjoying working in the Commons cat game.

I'd like to suggest the removal of certain titles from the Wikipedia title suggestions, based on title suffixes, because these almost never have a dedicated category. This would hopefully reduce the total by a large number, thus saving time for many editors.

I'd suggest removing everything that ends with:

  • (name)
  • (surname)
  • (given name)
  • (EP)
  • song)
  • album)
  • soundtrack)
  • novel)
  • episode)
  • (comics)
  • (character)
  • (book)
  • (magazine)
  • (journal)
  • (season 1)
  • (season 2)
  • (season 3)
  • (season 4)
  • (season 5)
  • (season 6)

or begins with:

  • Template:... [These don't ever seem applicable?]

Is this possible to do easily? If yes, should I ping the other top 10 contributors to that game (onwiki), so that they can suggest possible additions or endorsements/concerns?

Huge thanks, for this tool and all that you do. :-)
