It strikes me that there are many themes that are not the subject of collecting. Wouldn't it be better to limit the number of themes? What is the point of having a theme “Oosterwal”, for example? Themes should be the subject of collecting. There are many themes where this is not the case.

Am I a big believer in this, but which one?

Place name, street name and country are already fields with the postcards, so it seems rather double that you also mention them with the themes.
There is also a good chance that the place name and country fields, the basis of new theme headings will be there, so then it is not really necessary to mention it in the themes anyway.
There are also a number of things that can be merged, such as hospital and hospitals.
For the rest of the themes I would like to ask again, to leave it as it is now as much as possible, until we have finished with the central theme register.

In a previous forum discussion I argued in favor of designating places and villages as a theme. That makes the database simpler, and it also makes more sense. I then understood that this seemed like a good idea, but a lot of work.
Furthermore, I think a theme is everything that is the subject of collecting. So I think everything can be a theme. However, now I see that there are many themes that are not collected on.

This is probably also something that will be looked at when we start with the central theme registry.
If it is decided to make them into theme fields, this can be done in one go.
In any case, it is desirable not to allow countries, places and street names to be included in the themes for the time being.
If you are going to adjust all items 1 by 1, that is indeed a lot of work.
