Speedy Cfd discussion
Nominator's rationale: Opposed at speedy. Rename per WP:C2C. Omnis Scientia (talk) 22:59, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: As for as I can tell, there is no English variety here. "Race caller" is used for more than just horse racing and is not limited to Australia. Also, the use of the terms "commentators", "broadcasters", and "announcers" for sports categories depends on the sport. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:04, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: to me the use of "announcers" in Category:American sports announcers‎ and "commentators" in Category:Australian sports commentators looks like a WP:ENVAR difference, but I would welcome input from Australian English speakers. TSventon (talk) 00:23, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TSventon, that is a seperate matter entirely. I'm not asking to change the name of the container categories but to make it consistant with its sister categories. For example, Category:British sports broadcasters has a category for Category:British association football commentators; Category:American sports announcers has Category:American soccer commentators. Despite nationality cats using different terms, the names are consistant with Category:Association football commentators (minus the obvious difference between "soccer" and "association football").
Hence, this one should go by consistancy with sports categories, and this one should be Category:Australian horse racing announcers to match Category:American horse racing announcers and Category:Canadian horse racing announcers. The British one needs splitting between writers and announcers and, for that, I'm waiting for another Cfd to close. Omnis Scientia (talk) 08:58, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Omnis Scientia, sports announcers seems to be North American English, so under WP:ENVAR it should not be used in British and Australian categories. The subcategories of Category:Sports commentators by sport appear to reflect ENVAR: American dominated sports such as baseball use "announcers" and others use "commentators" or "broadcasters". I am hoping for a third opinion, hopefully with knowledge of Australian English. TSventon (talk) 22:44, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Marcocapelle, what do you think about this? I don't think this is a WP:ENVAR issue. I'm merely going by what the more common form is in the parent category and by the fact that each "commentator by sports" category uses a different term (see Category:Sports commentators by sport).

  • Please ignore everything I said above. Only now I start to realize that this is about live commentators as "personnel of the race", which may be regarded as something completely different than television commentators who are media personnel. I am not saying now that "commentators" is necessarily wrong here, but at least there is a fair possibility that terminology in this case may deviate from other sports.

@Marcocapelle, in which case, what would you suggest? I'll withdraw this and start a new Cfd since this one seems to be going nowhere. Omnis Scientia (talk) 21:12, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Personifications in mythology and religion

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: no consensus. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 07:47, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I don't necessarily disagree that this category could use subcategorizing. However, bundling mythology with religion is perhaps insulting to some. They don't necessarily have anything to do with each other, though some entities can be both. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 01:20, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep/oppose. I don't know how much of a real distinction can be made between mythology and religion, Greek mythology = ancient Greek pagan religion for example. And the subcategories here are all basically listing deities that are also personifications of something. AHI-3000 (talk) 02:24, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See Personification in the Bible and Statue of Hope. This would technically belong there, but mythology is generally seen as an insult when used to describe modern religions, as it can mean "fictitious". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:37, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We already have articles on Jewish mythology, Christian mythology, Islamic mythology, Hindu mythology, and Buddhist mythology. "Modern" religions have their own myths, just like any other. Dimadick (talk) 08:07, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: merge (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:51, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: It does not seem practical or efficient to split by region content relative to Oceania outside of the region. Content ends up being placed in duplicate or wrong locations, e.g. the categories for the Marshallese, Samoan and Tongan diasporas or American people of Oceanian descent are found in the Pacific Islands category instead of the regional one, and e.g. KNDI is weirdly placed in Micronesia although this radio station explicitly has programming relative to e.g. Tonga, Samoa, Okinawa, Hawaii etc. which are not in Micronesia.
