User:FollowTheSigns, my apologies. I did not check the page history before I re-added Category:Franchises and therefore did not see that you just previously removed it. I decided that it serves our readers better if this category remains. Indeed, it was precisely because I was looking specifically for a media franchises category that I started at Category:Franchises, which seemed the most logical. As to your argument that it's "not in the legal sense", technically yes, you're right. But I don't think we should limit this category to just the legal sense. Why can't we have it more broad? Perhaps removing the hatnote pointing to Franchising as being the "main article for this category" will avoid confusion? On second thought, perhaps a better compromise would be to add to the hatnote something like "... For media franchises, see Category:Media franchises"? -- œ 03:41, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
