Rename proposal[edit]

It has been requested that this category be renamed. Reason: There are at least 10 "Sand Water"s on the Shetland Islands. Target name was not proposed.

@ŠJů: (Edit conflict) I'd suggest disambiguating by parish where possible (unfortunately that doesn't work completely). See en:Template:Imagemap_Shetland. So:
  1. 60.2741494|-1.2473100 → Category:Sand Water, Tingwall
  2. 60.3777347|-1.2067967 → Category:Sand Water, Nesting
  3. 60.2662100|-1.4669061 → Category:Sand Water, Northern Sandsting (unfortunately, three in Sandsting - can't think of a better one for this)
  4. 60.2120608|-1.4296061 → Category:Sand Water, Southern Sandsting ... or Category:Sand Water, Foglatougs ugh... getting very local
  5. 60.4524586|-1.2316750 → Category:Sand Water, Delting
  6. 60.1859206|-1.5183258 → Category:Sand Water, Culswick - another Sandsting... this area appears to be the Ward of Culswick, though.
  7. 60.5228331|-1.5349086 → Category:Sand Water, Northmavine
The three on Yell are tougher - the second is on a Sandwater Hill... but so is the last (though a different Sandwater Hill, of course - you wouldn't want to have it too confusing), and they're both in northern Yell. I wonder if Shetland is prone to, um, exceptionally sandy bodies of water. Storkk (talk) 13:20, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Storkk: Thank You for your proposal. A problem is that parish boundaries are not visible nor available in the most linked maps. I try to make descriptive disambiguations according to the maps, and to add you information to their descriptions. For the future, existing categories can be renamed/moved to better names. --ŠJů (talk) 13:28, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
