• Template talk:WPBannerMeta/Archive 8#File-Class
• Template talk:WPBannerMeta/Archive 5#Image-Class or File-Class?
• User talk:Cyde#File-Class articles

• Get a bot to create all the "File-Class XXX articles" categories. The content should correspond to the "Image-Class XXX articles" category.  Done
• Make a change to Template:Class mask so that the default name for this class is changed to "File". Some custom class masks may also need to be updated.  Done
• Update the other banners that don't use class mask at Category:WikiProject banners.
• Update all banners using inline class masks.  Done
• Delete all the unwanted categories of the form "Image-Class XXX articles".  Done

• Script and list by WOSlinker to semi-automate creating the categories.
• by Xeno to delete empty Image-class categories
