Rename to Category:Gin ?

[edit]

Gin is a singulare tantum. The broad topic of "gin distilling, consumption and legislation" is "Gin", not "Gins". Whilst we might have a category about specific gin brands and rightly call that "Gins", that is because brands take the common plural form, not because gin does. Accordingly we should rename this category to Category:Gin.

In the fullness of time it's possible we might have two categories, but the second would then become Category:Gin brands, rather than Category:Gins. Besides which, we're still a long way from needing that yet. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:25, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
