I added Category:en:William Shakespeare. This category belongs; the name is known primarily as the name of a character in Hamlet. The Wikipedia article "Ophelia" refers to said character, implying that this is the "primary topic", as Wikipedia puts it, for said term.--Solomonfromfinland (talk) 23:42, 27 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Solomonfromfinland: It does not belong because we don't have a definition for the character Ophelia, nor should we, per CFI: "With respect to names of persons or places from fictional universes, they shall not be included unless they are used out of context in an attributive sense". Without the relevant definition, the category becomes irrelevant to the page, a kind of tangential word cloud. If you'd like to appeal to the community, you should make a post in the Beer Parlour, but I think most users will agree with me. Ultimateria (talk) 01:30, 28 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
