The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Russophilic parties in Moldova. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 11:50, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose renaming Category:Russian political parties in Moldova to Category:Pro-Russian political parties in Moldova

Nominator's rationale: None of these parties are "Russian". We are talking about political parties in Moldova, they're Moldovan. However, they take a pro-Russian approach. It does not mean they're "Russian". Super Ψ Dro 23:01, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Alternative 1 Category:Russian diaspora political parties in Moldova, named after Category:Russian diaspora political parties or alternative 2 Category:Russophilic parties in Moldova and re-parent, named after Category:Russophilic parties. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:18, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Further comment, a number of sibling categories may be nominated for the same reason. Marcocapelle (talk) 23:18, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They're not ethnic Russian parties so I would accept the second alternative. Super Ψ Dro 07:37, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Rename Category:Russophilic parties in Moldova. This seems like the best alternative per Super Dromaeosaurus.4meter4 (talk) 15:13, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose renaming Category:Nike Inc. advertising to Category:Nike, Inc. advertising

Nominator's rationale: Nike, Inc. (with a comma) is the name of the parent category and of the Nike article. Dennis C. Abrams (talk) 21:23, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:09, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge per nom. –Aidan721 (talk) 13:42, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Parks are not exactly "buildings" or "structures", nor would Wikipedians assume to look or tag them like that. There are probably many articles that can be added to these categories with minimal effort; just do it. ɱ (talk) 15:50, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Category:Parks is part of Category:Outdoor structures is part of Category:Buildings and structures. Marcocapelle (talk) 16:27, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• While the nominator is just looking at the current parents per Marcocapelle, I see what you mean. I'm open to a better merge target, if you have specific suggestions. - RevelationDirect (talk) 05:23, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Parks is a child of "protected areas", which makes logical sense. I removed "outdoor structures". A park is not a structure. Even for parks with structures, the structures are auxiliary, far from the highlight, and not important. ɱ (talk) 14:20, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• I agree, that makes a lot more sense! RevelationDirect (talk) 14:46, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per @Ɱ. The targets are the least-worst choice of parent cats, but they are a poor fit. This tree has plenty of scope for expansion: https://petscan.wmflabs.org/?psid=25058388 finds 4,248 articles with Wikidata property Q22698 (parks). My quick spot review of the titles in those Petscan results seemed to show a low rate of false positives. @Marcocapelle: what tests did you do on the possibilities for growth? --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 19:10, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• This opens up a new discussion, namely is the nominated tree meant for Parks in a narrow sense (as it is currently) or Parks in a broad sense (as it is in the wider tree that you investigated, i.e. including national and regional parks, also including zoos, gardens and trails)? I am inclined to argue that the similarity between a park and a national park is just in the name. Parks are in essence outdoor structures, while national parks in essence are protected areas. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:01, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• I looked at the first five articles and dates by establishment are often challenging which reduces how many could be added to this tree: 1 (Structures built in 1914 made public in 1926), 2 (I couldn't determine a clear date), 3 (designated in 1839, 1844, and again in 1871 but the article makes clear those designations were not honored), 4 ("late 19th century"), 5 (1662). But looking at those specific dates (1662, 1839, 1844, 1871, 1914, 1926), none has a current category so, in addition to presumably adding some articles to current cats, we would also be generating a lot of additional potentially small categories. - RevelationDirect (talk) 05:16, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Category:Parks established in (decade) and buildings and structures as nominated. Grouping parks establised in 1801 and 1899 in the same category doesn't aide navigation but separating them by decade does. See Category:Cemeteries by decade of establishment--User:Namiba 23:41, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Buildings and structures" is a poor choice when many parks have 0 structures, and Category:Protected areas by century of establishment exists. This is a much better parent cat, and already in use for many parks. ɱ (talk) 14:16, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Category:Parks established in (decade) and buildings and structures as nominated, per Namiba. I think it is the responsibility of creators of categories to populate them (or at least most of them) adequately before moving on. Oculi (talk) 00:28, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• A (city) park is a structure by itself. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:43, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Background Here is an earlier nom merging in an undeveloped "Parks and open spaces by year of establishment" tree". - RevelationDirect (talk) 04:51, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to Category:Parks established in (decade) and buildings and structures as nominated, per Namiba. That seems like a reasonable level of granularity which "does have realistic potential for growth" as outlined in WP:SMALLCAT. The current by year ones likely don't and whole anemic tree of small categories doesn't fit the "large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme" envisioned in WP:SMALLCAT. (Addressing the no votes above, the buildings and structures categories are the current parent and populating this tree seems more likely to add yet more small year categories, not to address the issue of each cat being small.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 04:51, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• ::* A (city) park is a structure by itself. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:43, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment (2 Issues and CFD Scope) There are really two topics in this nom: 1) How granular the establishments categories should be and 2) Whether the whole Category:Parks tree should be under Category:Buildings and structures. Beyond which target categories to use, these topics aren't connected and you may agree with other editors on one topic and disagree on another which will make it hard for a closer to gauge consensus on each.

I agree with User:Ɱ which just boldly removed the B&S parent category. Nonetheless, I suggest we settle only the 1st question in this nomination for now since removing Parks from Buildings & Structures will take a lot of cleanup beyond this CFD nomination. (Take a look at Category:Outdoor structures in Brunei to see an example of that cleanup.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 14:46, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• @RevelationDirect: a (city) park is a structure by itself. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:43, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• A (city) park is certainly a structure. Not sure why there is any discussion about this. Oculi (talk) 18:01, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Shall I then replace the "buildings and structures" targets by "protected areas", and "parks by century" targets by "parks by decade" targets? Marcocapelle (talk) 15:10, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, parks by decade seems to have a consensus forming from the support iVotes and protected areas would address the very valid target category concern raised by the two oppose iVotes. (I don't want to speak for either of the latter though, since they also were encouraging keeping the individual years.)- RevelationDirect (talk) 17:24, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think parks fit under both buildings and structures as well as protected areas and should be added to both. FWIW, they are already under cultural infrastructure.--~~

I really don't think it's on a smallcat nomination if the existing parent categories for a much larger group are potentially incorrect. If there's not a clear consensus for addressing this now, upmerging to the buildings and structures for now would maintain the status quo and we can have a subsequent nomination on the parenting issue.

• Keep: I not only agreed with Ɱ, but I agree that there are many articles that are missing the proper categorization. This category tree can easily be expanded. Dimadick (talk) 07:03, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• The question is not whether the tree can easily be expanded. Sure, many years are still missing. But the question is whether the categories can be better populated other than by adding national parks which are a completely different thing than "city parks" and only share the park name. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:43, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep all. This is an example of where WP:COMMONSENSE has completely left the conversation. There are lots of parks in the world that would pass WP:GNG for which we currently lack articles. We can populate these cats by article creation. Further, there is a certain usefulness for maintaining the cats in their current state for those looking to research events that occurred within a given year. If it's isn't broken don't fix it.4meter4 (talk) 15:23, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: No consensus This close was discussed at Wikipedia:Discussions for discussion#Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2023 June 28#Category:Rulers of Milan * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 15:33, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose renaming Category:Rulers of Milan to Category:Lords of Milan

Nominator's rationale: Virtually all members in this category were "Lord of Milan". I suggest we manually (re)move everyone who might not fit "Lord of Milan" (e.g. Carlo Gonzaga of Milan?) to somewhere else. The subcategories Category:Dukes of Milan and Category:Duchesses of Milan have been made its siblings rather than its children in the Category:Nobility from Milan. The new sibling Category:Ladies of Milan has also been created for the consorts of the Lords of Milan. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 00:07, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Rename per nom. They should also be re-parented to Category:History of Milan, while I have my doubts about politicians (for sure politicians does not apply to the duchesses). Marcocapelle (talk) 06:41, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Good points. List of Milanese consorts (the main article for Category:Duchesses of Milan) frames them as "consorts", and although there are exceptions such as Beatrice d'Este, who most definitely was a politician, we perhaps shouldn't regard it as a rule. Category:Consorts of monarchs and Category:Royal consorts are not in the Category:Politicians tree, except through Category:Monarchs (which technically might not be a good parent; maybe we should make it Category:Monarchy and Category:Royalty, respectively?). On the other hand, e.g. Category:First ladies of the United States and Category:Second ladies of the United States are in Category:American women in politics, which is in Category:American politicians, so being the POTUS' or VPOTUS' spouse automatically makes you a politician (which I find somewhat ironic in a non-dynastic, republican system of government). Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 13:36, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  PS: Maybe we need a Category:Duchesses regnant per Category:Empresses regnant and Category:Queens regnant? Various women are already described as such: Marie-Adélaïde, Grand Duchess of Luxembourg (She was the firstGrand Duchess regnant of Luxembourg), Nicole, Duchess of Lorraine, Maria Beatrice d'Este, Duchess of Massa (?, sovereign duchess of Massa and Carrara), Anne of Brittany, Princess Pauline, Duchess of Sagan, Mary of Burgundy (in 1482 and 1457), Isabella of Aragon, Duchess of Milan (Queen regnant of Poland and Grand Duchess regnant of Lithuania), and Elizabeth of Görlitz (called the last duchess regnant Elisabeth of Görlitz in House of Valois-Burgundy). The default assumption people currently may have is that all Category:Duchesses were just consorts of Dukes. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 13:49, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Went ahead and BOLDly created it. It could serve to clarify a lot of ambiguity going forward. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 23:29, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Also created Category:Countesses regnant. This could serve us very well for future categorisation. The current Category:Countesses tree follows the logic that all countesses are consorts, and that countesses regnant of Fooland are to be found in Category:Counts of Fooland. This makes internal logical sense, but this logic is not applied to other consorts categories. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:43, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @Marcocapelle Should we create a Category:Ladies consort of Milan to group all List of Milanese consorts#Lady of Milan, and rename Category:Duchesses of Milan to Category:Duchesses consort of Milan for all List of Milanese consorts#Duchess of Milan (excluding any Duchesses regnant of Milan that might currently be in the category)? Both these should then be put somewhere in the consort category tree (probably Category:Consorts of monarchs), and taken out of the Category:Rulers of Milan category tree. If you agree, I'll make that a separate nom. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 10:57, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Nederlandse Leeuw: sure, except they seem to be simply called ladies of Milan (without "consort"). Alternatively they should at least be added to Category:Nobility from Milan. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:20, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @Marcocapelle True, there appear to have been no "ladies regnant of Milan", so perhaps the adjective "regnant" is redundant. Moreover, there appear to have been no "duchesses regnant of Milan" either (nobody in Category:Duchesses regnant was duchess regnant of Milan; despite her widely recognised and celebrated political role, Beatrice d'Este was still a Duchess consort). Alternately, we could also just throw all Duchesses and Ladies consort of Milan into a Category:Consorts of Milan per WP:C2D List of Milanese consorts, and forego mentioning their titles of "Lady" or "Duchess" altogether. In that case, renaming Category:Duchesses of Milan to Category:Consorts of Milan and adding all the ladies consort of Milan may be the easiest solution. A re-parent to Category:Nobility of Milan seems a fine addition. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 11:41, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @Marcocapelle made it a separate nomination: Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_April_26#Category:Duchesses_of_Milan. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 11:25, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep This is a suitably vague term covering people with a variety of titles and degrees of authority. It may need restructuring to eliminate wives. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:13, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Update @Marcocapelle and I agreed on the creation of Category:Ladies of Milan. Both it and Category:Duchesses of Milan have been put in Category:Nobility from Milan, while the duchesses have been removed from Category:Rulers of Milan. Now nothing seems to stand in the way of the proposal to Rename to Category:Lords of Milan and Purge all non-Lords.

• Query: what will now be the category containing all lords and dukes of Milan? Furius (talk) 20:47, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Category:Nobility from Milan. I see that I haven't yet properly updated the rationale and re-parenting. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:14, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Nomination has been simplified and updated to make things easier. I've done the re-parenting already. It now looks like this:

  • Category:Nobility from Milan
    • Category:Ladies of Milan – main article List of Milanese consorts
    • Category:Duchesses of Milan – main article List of Milanese consorts
    • Category:Rulers of Milan‎ proposed for renaming to Category:Lords of Milan‎ – main article List of rulers of Milan
    • Category:Dukes of Milan‎ – main article List of rulers of Milan

  So the Ladies and Duchesses share a main article, and the Rulers (proposed: Lords) and Dukes share a main article. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 21:30, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  This seems to throw the Milanese heads of state (dare I say "rulers"?) together with a whole lot of people who were just "nobility" (e.g. Guglielma) and leaves us without any category that contains all of the rulers of Milan and only the rulers of Milan. Furius (talk) 23:34, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Having thought about it a bit more, I think I'm asking that there be a "Category:Monarchs of Milan" (or similar name). Furius (talk) 23:39, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  That seems unnecessary. All monarchs are nobility, just not necessarily the other way around. What we could do is re-parent Category:Lords of Milan‎ from Category:European rulers to Category:Italian monarchs, just as its sibling Category:Dukes of Milan is already in. "Category:Monarchs of Milan" would be a WP:SMALLCAT, there would only be Lords and Dukes in it. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 15:55, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @LaundryPizza03: May it be a good idea to relist this one? The original nomination has been simplified and updated, but it hasn't been commented on for a long time, and so far there is no clear indication where this CfR is going.

• Keep It's beneficial having a category which can encompass more than one title, and can catch the few articles which don't fit neatly elsewhere. Some of the suggestions made here would be useful sub-categories under this category. There is no reason that this has to be an either/or choice, as we can build out the category tree.

• Update I've made the process easier by WP:BOLDly splitting off Lord of Milan (already a redirect), and renaming List of rulers of Milan to List of dukes of Milan. Now the latter is the main article of Category:Dukes of Milan, and Category:Rulers of Milan can now be renamed to Category:Lords of Milan to align with the new main article Lord of Milan. This seems to solve most issues that have been caused by trying to fit two titles into 1 list and 1 category, which just doesn't work very well.

  • @Peterkingiron, Furius, and 4meter4: given that update, could you now support this proposal? – Fayenatic London 21:19, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  No. Nothing has been done to deal with the fundamental issue that the lords of Milan and dukes of Milan were a similar kind of thing (i.e. heads of state) who are now being categorised as if they were the same as a whole lot of very different things (i.e. nobles). There is a fundamental difference between what the Duke of Milan was and what, say, the Duke of Argyll is. The heads of state of Milan are left outside the "Heads of state of former countries" category tree and the "monarchs of Italy" tree.

  Thanks to NL's crusade against the word "ruler", we now deal with this issue of rulers changing their titles in other states by having a category "Monarchs of" (e.g Category:Monarchs of Württemberg), or a category "heads of state of" (e.g. Category:Heads of state of Florence). There should be something like this for Milan, too.

  This bold change has made the matter worse by propagating this matter of categorisation into the main article space and in the process breaking a bunch of links to List of rulers of Milan (which will now take readers to the dukes when the article was dealing with the lords or with both).

• Propose merging Category:Immigrants to the Colony of New Zealand to Category:Immigrants to New Zealand

Nominator's rationale: Until very recently, people who migrated to New Zealand were all in the same tree Category:Immigrants to New Zealand and its many subcats. User:Johnpacklambert has created this new cat for the 19th c. migrants, and is depopulating the many subcats of the original global cat by removing people who moved to New Zealand in the 19th c, e.g. here, here and here. The end result of this new division is thus that we have less informative categories on the articles, and less people in the correct New Zealand cat, all for the sake of some pedantry. This should be undone. Fram (talk) 16:17, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Disperse among subcategories of Category:Immigrants to New Zealand, per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:16, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. @Fram couldn't this just be solved by making Category:Immigrants to the Colony of New Zealand a sub-cat of Category:Immigrants to New Zealand? I do think there is some value to grouping immigrants from the colonial era into a separate group for aid in historical research.4meter4 (talk) 15:45, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • If it exists (on the articles) next to the subcats of the "to New Zealand" category (e.g. Category:French immigrants to New Zealand, then it isn't really a problem. The cat creator though intended to replace the by country subcats of the "to New Zealand" cat with a single cat "to the Colony of New Zealand", which may aid historical research on the New Zealand side, but loses the "from" information (if you want historical research about e.g. what was the role of French immigrants in New Zealand). And creating the by country subcats for the "to Colony" cat would create very small cats, which isn't enouraged either. So my proposal is either to get rid of the "to Colony" cat completely, or to let it stand in articles together with "country to New Zealand" cats, not instead of. Fram (talk) 15:57, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Support. Subdivision of NZ topics by historical period is usually by century, not by the constitutional status of the country – e.g. Category:19th-century New Zealand politicians. So if Category:Immigrants to New Zealand was to be divided by period, it would be Category:19th-century immigrants to New Zealand etc. By the same token, Category:Colony of New Zealand people should be scrapped in favour of the existing Category:19th-century New Zealand people etc.; Category:New Zealand artists to Category:19th-century New Zealand artists etc.; Category:Sportspeople from the Colony of New Zealand upmerged to Category:New Zealand sportspeople. There are a few other cats to consider too – perhaps the odd one is actually tied to the constitutional status and could remain?? Nurg (talk) 00:18, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose downmerging Category:Rulers of Lithuania to Category:Lithuanian monarchs

Nominator's rationale: WP:SMALLCAT 1 C, 0 P. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 01:01, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alt proposal rationale: In addition to downmerging, the resultant category should also be renamed from Fooian monarchs to Monarchs of Foo, as the latter is more precise (suggested by Laurel Lodged and Marcocapelle; see also "Suggestion B" at the "Category:Monarchs of Bohemia" CfD, where the same point has been made).

  • @Nederlandse Leeuw: I meant "support" for sure. The term "reverse merge" is used as contrasting to the original merge nomination, so as a nominator you can't propose reverse merge. "Up" (=default) and "down" are the directions in the hierarchy of the tree. The original nomination can be up or down, so a reverse merge is down or up, respectively.

• @Laurel Lodged: they are in Category:Polish monarchs but I am not sure how your question relates to the nomination. Marcocapelle (talk) 04:58, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Alt Let me clarify my intent: the nomination proposes a switch from a 'by country' tree structure to a 'by nationality' tree structure. This is incorrect as it would force non-Lithuianian nationals (Polish kings) into the category. It would be better to Rename it to Category:Monarchs of Lithuania. Laurel Lodged (talk) 07:00, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Oh ok, that is more precise indeed. I will tag the target too, in order to have that settled simultaneously. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:58, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Category:Monarchs of Lithuania is also preferable for me. But do you intend to (A) still merge both cats and name the merged category Category:Monarchs of Lithuania? Or to (B) keep Category:Lithuanian monarchs as a child of the renamed Category:Monarchs of Lithuania? My preference is A. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 04:20, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Further elabotation I think that a renmaed "Rulers" to Category:Monarchs of Lithuania could sit in parallel with Category:Lithuanian monarchs. Some monarchs of Lithuania were not Lithuanian nationals (e.g. John II Casimir Vasa). Some Lithuanian monarchs were monarchs of states that were not in Lithuania (e.g. King of Hungary). Laurel Lodged (talk) 10:11, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Care to elaborate? In what sense they were non-Lithuanian nationals? Also if monarch of Lithuania isn't Lithuanian national, then who really is? Marcelus (talk) 07:47, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. John II Casimir Vasa was Polish of Swedish descent. Laurel Lodged (talk) 10:06, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, this is not a elaboration. Secondly, you are talking about his ethnicity, and it so happens that on both sides he was descended from the Jagiellons, who were of Lithuanian descent. Apart of that he also had Swedish, German, Italian, French etc. descendants. But this is irrelevant. Because he was a Grand Duke of Lithuania, and you cannot be more Lithuanian than that. Marcelus (talk) 11:33, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcelus: You should be bound by your own logic. In a CFD on March 25th you wrote: "people from Palestine and Palestinian people aren't the same". The same applies to Lithuania and Lithuanian. Laurel Lodged (talk) 12:10, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Again, you need to elaborate. And please explain what you understand by "Lithuanian national"? Marcelus (talk) 13:36, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcelus: Perhaps I could better answer if your were to first explain what you meant by "Palestinian people". Laurel Lodged (talk) 13:54, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think good idea is to stay on topic here. Marcelus (talk) 14:10, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• I think it is a very bad idea to have Category:Monarchs of Lithuania in parallel with Category:Lithuanian monarchs because of the enormous overlap and (based on above discussion) because of disagreement about what Lithuanian monarchs means if not monarchs of Lithuania. There should be one category and the slightly more precise name is Category:Monarchs of Lithuania. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:50, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK then. Just 1. Laurel Lodged (talk) 15:54, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Update I've added the suggestions of Laurel and Marcocapelle (and indirectly my own at the Bohemian monarchs CfD) as Alt proposal to the nom. The current balance is 3 in favour of the Alt proposal (Laurel, Marco and I). Marcelus has not yet formally taken up a position on this CfM, but at least appears to reject the Alt proposal.

Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 16:43, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Well I firmly oppose taking Category:Political office-holders by country, especially monarchs, out of Category:Political people by nationality, because why we would do that? None was more Lithuanian by nationality than monarch of Lithuania, even if he was ethnically Chinese. Marcelus (talk) 19:43, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  @Marcelus Because nationality is WP:NONDEFINING for political office-holders in general, because certain political offices can be held regardless of one's nationality. But no worries: in this case it won't have much effect anyway. Category:Rulers of Lithuania is in Category:Lithuanian people by occupation, which is in Category:People by nationality and occupation. Therefore, Monarchs of Lithuania will be considered to have Lithuanian nationality due to their "job".

  By the way, today Laurel and I just so happened to find out that the "Category:People by country" tree seems to be based on country of residence rather than nationality, but the tree doesn't make that very clear so far. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:05, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  We could decide here and now as a convention that monarchs of Foo will always be put in Fooian people by occupation. I.e. we automatically grant them the nationality of the country they reign over (regardless of any other nationality they might have). I would not be opposed to that idea. I am opposed to the idea that people with Barian nationality should be considered automatically disqualified front holding every type of political office in Foo.

• Propose Deleting Category:The Hellenic Society for Systemic Studies Award
• Propose Deleting Category:The Hellenic Society for Systemic Studies Medal

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCAWARD and WP:NONDEFINING We don't have a main article on either award but we do have two redirects that both point to the Hellenic Society for Systemic Studies, a Greek scientific organization. These biography articles don't treat the award as defining, mentioning it in passing with other honors (except for one where the category creator added it to the intro). The contents are already listified right here in the organization article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Propose Deleting Category:Fraternity Award

Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCAWARD, WP:PERFCAT, and WP:NONDEFINING

The Fraternity Award is given to artists by the B'nai B'rith of Uruguay and consists of a trip to Israel and Europe so the winner can perform a concert, exhibition, play, or lecture. It sounds like a neat cross-cultural exchange but the biography articles don't treat the performance as defining, generally mentioning it in passing. The contents are already listified right here in the main article for any reader interested in the topic. - RevelationDirect (talk) 00:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
