This category combines naval and pirate captains with sports captains. Obviously, this is silly. Would the best course of action be to split it into two, with "Category:Sports Captains" and "Category:Naval Captains" or something along those lines, or should one of the two groups simply be removed from this category?

Splitting sounds like a good idea, but what about Hammer Bro Captain? He is neither a naval captain nor a sports captain. Dark BonesSig.png 14:31, 5 July 2017 (EDT)
It's not an elegant solution, but fringe cases like the Hammer Bro captain could be left in this generic Captain category, with sports captains and naval captains being subcategories of this one. Something similar is done for Category:Royalty. Kings, queens, princes, and princesses are split into subcategories, but for characters who are some sort of royalty but don't fit into the subcategories, like Sultan Pasbah or the Duke of Alencon, they can stay in the main category.
