Propose renaming Category:Burmese playwrights to Category:Burmese dramatists and playwrights

Category:Former members of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge to Category:Members of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong. We don't generally use separate categories for former and current members of an organisation. It would, however, probably be a good idea to create a new subcat Category:Members of the Legislative Council of British Hong Kong or similar. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:00, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Political positions of vice presidents of the United States (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Delete. Only has four entries, and three of them are completely redundant to Category:Political positions of United States presidents. Purplebackpack89 (talk) 18:42, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Neither of them are that blatently redundant. I'm saying small size + 75% redundency to one existing category = toss it. Also would note that all the mayors are much more notable for being something else, like Senators or candidates for high office. Probably case for deletion of that as well Purplebackpack89 (talk) 19:32, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The following is an archived discussion concerning one or more categories. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on an appropriate discussion page (such as the category's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the discussion was: Rename:
--Xdamrtalk 15:51, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming
Nominator's rationale: Category:Divisions was renamed to Category:Divisions (military units) per CfD 3 Dec 2008—a discussion that yielded unanimous consensus for renaming, but no less than 4 different renaming options. I am currently working through the 'Divisions (military units)' category tree, and so would like to reopen discussion on the question of naming. While "Divisions (military units)" is rather unwieldy, at least one participant in the 3 Dec 2008 discussion noted that "Military divisions" or "Divisions (military)" could be understood to refer to branches of the armed forces or to military administration, rather than to actual military units. If a clear consensus emerges, then I will go ahead and nominate the other categories in the tree that require clarification (not all of them, but a significant number). –BLACK FALCON (TALK) 18:22, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Merge Category:Literary devices playing with meaning to Category:Literary devices. --Xdamrtalk 22:08, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Suggest merging Category:Literary devices playing with meaning to Category:Literary devices
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge At the CfD to merge sister category Category:Literary devices playing with meaning, there was agreement that the "playing with" construction really had to go. I think it's particularly awkward to have a category for the artful use of language itself so poorly worded. Anyway, now that the cat for the sounds of words has been settled, at least for now, all the meaning devices can simply be upmerged, IMO. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:19, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Rename Category:Anzac class destroyers to Category:Parker class leaders. --Xdamrtalk 22:05, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted from Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2009_August_29#Category:Anzac class destroyers for further comment. --Xdamrtalk 13:29, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Anzac class destroyers to Category:Parker class leaders
Nominator's rationale: Rename. To bring in line with ship class article at Parker class leader. Note: The one reliable source I have access to matches the name of the article and does not mention the Anzac name. Further, the article itself—for what it's worth—specifically calls the "Anzac class" name erroneous. — Bellhalla (talk) 05:04, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment shouldn't that be category:Parker class destroyer-leaders like other destroyer subtypes as DEs etc. ? 76.66.202.213 (talk) 05:36, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The article should either say Parker class destroyer leader or Parker class flotilla leader, not leader by itself, or should be renamed Parker class destroyer and rely on the leader quality to be explained in the text. Once that's sorted, this category question will follow in step. Me, I think Parker class destroyer and Category:Parker class destroyer make the better combination, but I'm not elbow deep in naval article organization. Binksternet (talk) 22:07, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Other than having the "Parker" in it somewhere, I'm totally open to whatever else it should say. For comparison we have the following with similar Royal Navy classes:
      • For the Faulknor class, identified in the article as "flotilla leaders", we have Faulknor class leader and Category:Faulknor class destroyers
      • For the Thornycroft type, identified in the article as "destroyer leaders", we have Thornycroft type leader and Category:Thornycroft type leaders
      • For the Admiralty type, identified in the article as "destroyer leaders", we have Admiralty type destroyer leader and Category:Admiralty type leader (listed separately at speedy to make it plural)
    • For the two Soviet classes identified as "destroyer leaders", we have (supporting your suggestion, Binksternet):
    • — Bellhalla (talk) 13:00, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • Aha, I thought there would be more uniformity, but there isn't. Clearly, all the categories should hew as closely as possible to the article name of the class of ship. The problem, then, is the wide variance in article names. I'm still a fan of just "destroyer" instead of any kind of this or that leader, but these are your babies, Bellhalla. What do you want for them? Binksternet (talk) 15:41, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Rename Category:Agosta 90B class submarines to Category:Agosta class submarines. --Xdamrtalk 22:06, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:Agosta 90B class submarines to Category:Agosta class submarines
Nominator's rationale: Rename to match the name of the main article Agosta class submarine, which discusses the thirteen members of the class, not just the three built to the "Agosta 90B" design. (The only submarines built to the newer design are/should be categorized at Category:Khalid class submarines.) Bellhalla (talk) 13:14, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest merging Category:Museums in New York County, New York to Category:Museums in Manhattan
Nominator's rationale: Merge. New York County is Manhattan, except the latter term is better known. brewcrewer (yada, yada) 05:07, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I guess. Its just last time I tried nomming categories and subcategories, I found it too confusing, so I figured that someone will come along and do it for me. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 05:26, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Rename Category:Olympic villages to Category:Olympic Villages. --Xdamrtalk 22:08, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Propose renaming Category:Olympic villages to Category:Olympic Villages
Nominator's rationale: Rename per Mr. Nitpicky here, but according to the main article and category contents, Olympic Village is a proper noun, in which case our guidlines call for Title Case. While there isn't much use of the term in plural form, a Google search for Olympic Villages does indicate that a correction is in order. Rename? Get a life?

The result of the discussion was: Delete. --Xdamrtalk 15:56, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Category:Biota of the West Bank (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Bad cat name politically, ecologically and botanically. Not likely to be populated and contents are better categorised elsewhere. See alsoWikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2009_February_5#Category:Biota_of_the_West_Bank -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 01:42, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge into itself? I think there is a typo there somewhere. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 06:41, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The previous CfD being used as a precedent for deletion seems to have closed as keep. It is quite usual to publish books on fauna and flora by political divisions, so whether it may be in a sense illogical, it matches how the outside world categorizes things. (I'd say that the reason they are so published in usually national interest--as publishing does go by national boundaries--or sometimes, subsidies, or assumptions based on institutional location. An example deliberately from another geographic area is for Illinois 972 books. Getting closer, there's [hhttp://www.worldcat.org/search?q=Fauna+Jordan&qt=owc_search] for Jordan. And for this particular topic, there's [1] . Subsuming it into "Israel" is a political assumption that we should not be making. DGG ( talk ) 08:32, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The CfD was a keep "until better idea is found". The library results that you quote are not valid since they contain all sorts of spurious entries. I am not doubting the presence of publications on the biota in specific policical regions. It is just that this cat is a case over overcategorisation. It is doubtful that it will be populated by very many entries. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:48, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. In my view the category is without merit. I get the impression that the previous nomination miscarried on political correctness grounds. Hesperian 11:54, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete for 2 reasons: 1. there are only 2 articles here 2. anything growing in the West Bank will also grow in other, adjacent parts of Israel, so this category is non-defining. Debresser (talk) 11:18, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose -- these biota (and flora and fauna) by country categories cause great difficulties, because generally political boundaries are not biological ones. My preference would be to upmerge both to soemthing like Category:Biota of the Levant or Category:Biota of Middle East. However the latter would need to be split by climatic zones. The proposal is not acceptable in principle, because the West Bank is not part of Israel, merely territory occupied by it. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:43, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Ecology by region (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Nominator's rationale: Inapprop name. All the sub-categories are also up for deletion. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 00:01, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Question just why is it an inappropriate name? DGG ( talk ) 08:22, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ecology is the study of ecosystems and does not end at political borders. Ecology has often been confused with environment (biophysical) or environmental issues. WP should avoid confusing readers. The contents of the category can be moved to more appropriate categories. The category is not likely to be populated since the more approp Category:Environment, Category:Natural history exist. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:40, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Having an ecology by region category makes better sense than for political entities but considering the derth of other categories and possibility of low, arhh, population (ecology pun!!), of this category I don't think it needs to exist. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 21:30, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • But the British Isles are not a political entity, or were so for only little more than a century? This category is bracketing several significant subcategories and surely needs more definition of an alternative set of categories if it is to be replaced. AllyD (talk) 12:12, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Alan. The way this category is being used is completely inappropriate for its name. Ecology is the study of how organisms relate to their environment. I see precisely zero articles in this category that are related to ecology.

Wikipedia does have a few geography-specific ecology articles; for example Ecology of the North Cascades. Therefore it is not unreasonable for us to have a category for British Isles-related ecology-related articles. However "Ecology of the British Isles" would not be an appropriate name for such a category. "Ecology in the British Isles" would be an improvement, but still clumsy. As far as I can tell, the only way to fix this is to depopulate it, redefine it, and rename it. It's a case of George Washington's axe. Delete. Hesperian 12:42, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – cfd is not really suited to this sort of discussion. Perhaps WP:ECO should discuss this and make recommendations. (There were quite a number of articles including the word 'ecology' but Liefting was going round renaming them. I have no idea whether this has general support.) Occuli (talk) 14:49, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I suspect that Occuli was suggesting addressing the fundamental point as to whether the proposition's underlying definition of "ecology" is consensually supported rather than suggesting an indulgence in category-emptying outside CfD. AllyD (talk) 17:41, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Perhaps a reasonable compromise if some people strongly want to lose the word "ecology" would be an adaptation of Alan Liefting's June 1st 2009 CfD proposal (which I referenced above): disperse the articles currently under Category:Ecology of the British Isles between Category:Natural history of the British Isles and Category:Environment of the British Isles, avoiding the "United Kingdom" political unit. Then with new homes for all, the current category could be removed? AllyD (talk) 17:47, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- Strictly ecology is the study of the balance of nature eco=equal (Greek). As long as "region" means a climatic region, there is no reason why this category should not exist. The problem comes when it is a purely political or administrative region. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:48, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep in the absence of a clear proposition for replacement. AllyD (talk) 18:17, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest merging Category:Gastronomy-related organizations to something?
Nominator's rationale: Merge. Don't know what to do with this one. I ran into it when Landry's Restaurants was added to it. Some of the parents seem odd to me (Category:Gastronomy, Category:Organizations by subject and Category:Medical and health organizations) since this categorizes Category:Food-related organizations as medical and health organizations. So we probably need to do something, the question is what? Vegaswikian (talk) 07:03, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Vegas, if a parent category is obviously moronic, just remove it! Johnbod (talk) 14:49, 6 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
