Propose merging Category:Cities in the Iran by Province to Category:Cities in Iran by province

Nominator's rationale: Merge. "the Iran" is grammatically wrong; province should be lower case per our normal capitalization. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 22:58, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Category:Video game songs to Category:Video game music

Nominator's rationale: Most articles listed in this category aren't songs and I think it would be appropriate to merge into another existing category. This one seems redundant.

The result of the discussion was: Rename to Category:Human extinction. Dana boomer (talk) 01:54, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Delete I don't know of any precedent for having speculative futures as a scheme on Wikipedia--think of how many articles this could potentially hold (and this is only focusing on the future.) At the very least rename. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:02, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Superman Radio to Category:Superman radio series

Nominator's rationale: Obviously "radio" needs to be downcased as it is not part of a proper noun and adding "series" would make the the title more descriptive and be consistent with Category:Superman television series. Open to other suggestions, though. Jenks24 (talk) 06:01, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support because the proposed name is more descriptive. I don't know the plural of "series" but that would be even better. --Northernhenge (talk) 21:43, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The problem is that "series" is both the singular and the plural. Jenks24 (talk) 22:46, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- The plural of "series" is "series". Though it would probably be fun to see "serieses" or "serii" emerge as new linguistic phenomena, Wikipedia isn't the place to invent new words. Bearcat (talk) 23:01, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Relisted, see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2011 November 15. Dana boomer (talk) 01:54, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:LGBT topics in the San Francisco Bay Area to Category:LGBT culture in the San Francisco Bay Area

Nominator's rationale: "Topics" isn't an ideal term for the category, imo. It doesn't appear in any of the three parents, while "culture" is used in two. Another more simpler option would be to use the parent Category:LGBT in California as a model and create Category:LGBT in the San Francisco Bay Area? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:41, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Support, especially if "topics" just means "articles" and is therefore superfluous. --Northernhenge (talk) 21:47, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Rename to Category:LGBT culture in the San Francisco Bay Area, per other sibling categories in Category:LGBT culture in the United States by city. I thought the naming of this was problematic the last time I was dealing with it, and can't remember why I didn't do something about it at the time.
