Category:Pages with misused citation needed templates

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 to Category:Pages using span cleanup templates without text. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 00:47, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Pages with misused citation needed templates to Category:Pages with misused inline cleanup templates

Nominator's rationale: this tracking category was originally used only by the template {{Citation needed span}}. Nowadays, several inline cleanup templates use this tracking category. —⁠andrybak (talk) 23:18, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alt rename to Category:Pages using span cleanup templates without text or Category:Pages using inline cleanup templates without text to specify what is "misused". * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 01:42, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, absence of |text= is the only tracked misuse of these templates. Either alternative proposal is fine by me, with slight preference towards Category:Pages using span cleanup templates without text. —⁠andrybak (talk) 02:37, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete (no opposition). Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 00:45, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Category:Mexican public domain images (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: If these are public domain images, then they should be moved to commons:Category:PD-Mexico - there is no need for a local category here. Mike Peel (talk) 21:59, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There is also an associated template {{PD-Coa-Mexico}}. At least one of these images has a fair use rationale, but it is unclear whether either file is correctly licensed. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 13:47, 7 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename. MER-C 20:08, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:Statements (government) to Category:Government statements

Nominator's rationale: "Government statements" is a more natural form of disambiguation for this category name. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 21:53, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. –LaundryPizza03 (d c̄) 18:30, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support surprised how underpopulated it is; perhaps there is some other parallel structure. I note the Balfour Declaration is in Category:Government documents of the United Kingdom but not in this one. I wonder if there is a by-country tree somewhere I couldn't find.

The result of the discussion was: rename. bibliomaniac 1 5 03:12, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose renaming Category:High Court of American Samoa justices to Category:Justices of the High Court of American Samoa
Propose renaming Category:Supreme Court of Guam justices to Category:Justices of the Supreme Court of Guam
Propose renaming Category:Supreme Court of Puerto Rico justices to Category:Justices of the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico

Nominator's rationale: Recently the by-state category for U.S. state supreme court justices were renamed to this format: see CFD here. I suggest these non-state American justices categories should follow. Good Ol’factory ^(talk) 02:50, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 19:57, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:T.A.G. Hungerford Award winners‎

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD)

The City of Fremantle's T.A.G. Hungerford Award is given to an unpublished manuscript by an unpublished Western Australian author. We have a Catch-22 where, when the award is defining to people, they aren't notable enough for an article and, when they're notable enough for an article, the category is no longer defining. Accordingly, most of the winners don't have an article and, for the ones that do, this award is generally listed in passing with other awards they won later. (The only book in this category, The Fur, is likely defined by the award but would leave a WP:SMALLCAT.) The contents are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:18, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, obvious case of WP:OCAWARD. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:58, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as usual with WP:OCAWARD. Listify if necessary, but I gather it is not. Peterkingiron (talk) 12:39, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: delete. MER-C 19:57, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose Deleting/Listifying Category:Villa Romana prize winners‎

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:NONDEFINING (WP:OCAWARD)

The Villa Romana Prize is a German art award that consists of a year residency in a villa in Florence. If you think "villa" is just hyperbole for an artist's cabin, you could not be more wrong. Check out the the exterior architecture (stunning), the view of Tuscan countryside (gorgeous), and the hand-laid mosaic floors (um, okay). Most of the contents mention this award in passing as part of a list with other honors but Käthe Kollwitz's article actually mentions what art she created during the villa year: not a damned thing! I wouldn't get any work done either in this swanky pad. The contents are already listified here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:18, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:GM-stub

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: delete template and category; for the record, this was added by a new editor and only used on MyLink. – Fayenatic London 10:29, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Propose deleting Template:GM-stub (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: Unproposed, doesn't follow quantity or hierarchical requirements for a stub type. Used on only one article. Also nominate its category, Category:GM stubs, for deletion. Her Pegship (?) 00:20, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lean Toward Delete The only subcategory under Category talk:Motor vehicle company stubs and seems poorly used. (Note that I just removed the MyLink because it's not a stub.) Willing to reconsider though if editors appear hear who can say how they use this to improve the encyclopedia. RevelationDirect (talk) 02:42, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not for genetic modification, then? Grutness...wha? 03:15, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
