Well, I guess you didn't read what I wrote on the talk pages of the new categories: I designed the system so that it could be used territorially, based on the current political borders. There is already a mess because some of the "X proverbs" pages are based on language (e.g. Arabian), some on nationality (Jewish), but we need a clear system that could be used, e.g., by schoolkids (currently, projects are planned to call them to work on quotes, which should be a nice and easy job for them, but we have to provide them with a clear infrastructure, including categories). If we do not follow a simple principle then we end up with, e.g., all Estonian and Finnish proverbs marked as Russian (because we were under Russia in the 19th century, when the biggest folklore gathering campaigns were run, Lönnrot and Eisen and all), most of Central and Eastern Europe marked as "Austrian" or "German", etc etc. I try to build a system that would be easy to keep in the long run. --[[Kasutaja:Ehitaja|Ehitaja]] ([[Kasutaja arutelu:Ehitaja|arutelu]]) 20. veebruar 2020, kell 11:53 (EET)
