:That said, I'm not sure that "schools" fits the criteria of how this category is applied, but I also don't think that "school mechanics" is much of an improvement. I'd also question whether this category is being applied correctly. Perhaps the category was intended to categorize articles about different schools in ''The Sims'' - I'm thinking especially about the different school options presented in ''TS3: Generations''.

Rename it

From "Schools" into "school mechanics" ? DrakonoSkerdikas (talk) 10:57, April 11, 2019 (UTC)

Bear in mind that, from a technical standpoint, you can't rename categories. So, renaming the category involves extra steps that renaming a normal page doesn't have.
That said, I'm not sure that "schools" fits the criteria of how this category is applied, but I also don't think that "school mechanics" is much of an improvement. I'd also question whether this category is being applied correctly. Perhaps the category was intended to categorize articles about different schools in The Sims - I'm thinking especially about the different school options presented in TS3: Generations. If that was the case, then the category shouldn't be used to categorize things like homework or school projects. -- LostInRiverview talk · blog · contribs 14:01, April 11, 2019 (UTC)
