American folk songs category[edit]

I'm re-adding Category:American folk songs. A lot of Foster's songs are so ubiquitous that they are regarded as folk songs today (e.g. "Oh Susanna", "Camptown Races", etc.). Even more so than many of the other artists represented in that category. Ibadibam (talk) 06:31, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Hiddenstranger: why did you remove this category, along with American songs? Ibadibam (talk) 20:01, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The 'Songs written by...' categories do not go under genre categories, rather the artists' songs categories do eg. 'Category:Stephen Foster songs' though such a category does not exist; therefore I readded Category:American folk songs. Hiddenstranger (talk) 20:15, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be appropriate to rename this category Category:Stephen Foster songs to match the general naming scheme? Ibadibam (talk) 20:19, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
