Pickles

I have added the parents: "Vegetable pickles" --> "Pickles" to the olives category. I have translated that words in french like "Pickles" and "Pickles de lĂŠgumes". But I'm not sure... so, check that before updating the file in the system.--Javichu (talk) 22:03, 1 December 2013 (CET)

Adding labels from wikidata

For some of the labels, you can get labels from Wikidata. Eg :https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q83376

(non) dairy yogurts

The categories based on "en:Non-dairy yogurts" are currently contradicting, because they are categorized as "<en:Yogurts" which in turn makes them "<en:Dairies". Basically, they are dairies and non-dairies at the same time, which is not the (usual) case for soy yogurts etc. I guess there are at least two options:

  1. Remove yogurts from dairies and introduce a new subcategory "dairy yogurts" that gets added to yogurts and dairies, or
  2. remove non-dairy yogurts from yogurts.

The main disadvantage of the second approach is that there would be no parent category for all "yogurts". Unfortunately, the first approach would most likely lead to a lot of imprecisely categorized "yogurts" and few "dairy yogurts", because of the colloquial use of these words.

What do you think? Any other suggestions on how to solve this?

hangy, are you on Slack yet ? It's easier to debate there. --Tacite (talk) 12:13, 29 March 2015 (CEST)

No, never heard of it. How do I get on there? --hangy (talk) 12:15, 29 March 2015 (CEST)
