Environmental science & Environmental social science edit

Hello, In my view these two interdisciplinary fields should be viewed as equivalent categories at the same level, rather than one being subordinate to the other. Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 14:53, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

  • It seems to me that this field is at the intersection of social science and environmental science, so categorizing "env soc sci journals" as both "soc sci journals" and "env sci journals" seems to be the correct thing to do. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 15:00, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
Point taken... Works for me. Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 15:42, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

I disagree with categorizing these journals under Category:Sociology journals. By definition, these journals come from a variety of fields, including but not only from sociology. Thus Category:Social science journals is a better fit. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 19:07, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

As per the above, it continues to not make sense to me to subordinate these journals under Category:Environmental science journals, and from there to Category:Social science journals. The better, more direct and relevant subordination, in my opinion, is to go directly from these journals to Category:Social science journals. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 09:16, 22 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
