Redundant to Category:sh:Ursids. The only member of the family Ursidae that's not generally called a bear is the giant panda, and that's mostly because the scientific consensus that it belongs to the Ursidae instead of the Procyonidae is fairly recent.
A good argument could be made for moving Category:Ursids to Category:Bears rather than merging Category:sh:Bears into Category:sh:Ursids, but there's only this category, with two members, as opposed to 44 language-specific subcategories with 166 members for Category:Ursids.
I was tempted to just orphan and speedy this, but Purplebackpack89 rightly called me to task the last time I did that. Chuck Entz (talk) 01:16, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
- Support either course of action (moving Ursids to Bears or Bears to Ursids). I’d say that pandas are called bears too: panda bear. — Ungoliant (falai) 01:32, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
- Support moving the contents of
[[Category:sh:Bears]]to[[Category:sh:Ursids]]and deleting the "Bears" category. I don't object to the "Bears" name per se, but the other 43 languages call their categories "Ursids" so just fixing Serbo-Croatian is the easier solution. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 15:09, 6 July 2014 (UTC) - Ditto what Ungoliant said. - -sche (discuss) 15:16, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
