Why is this a topical category? It seems to me that it is mostly a homogeneous syntactic category. DCDuring TALK 20:35, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose the move. The members of the category act as adjectives. What makes them ordinal numbers is their semantics. For context, "It has been requested that this category be moved to English ordinal numbers". --Dan Polansky (talk) 20:40, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
Wasn't Category:English ordinal numbers vote approved in the first place, then deleted by CodeCat without a vote (but with discussion, I may add). Mglovesfun (talk) 08:28, 28 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
Where was it approved? Did we make a blanket approval to regard "ordinal number" as a part of speech? It isn't so in any language that I know of. --EncycloPetey (talk) 05:30, 7 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
