June 4

Sportspeople by populated place and sport

  • Propose renaming
Copy of speedy
Nominator's rationale: So we have two options here: A: rename to "Category:Baseball players from Foo by populated place"; or B: "Category:Fooian baseball players by populated place". Either way, the split should be at the end and should be "populated place" per recent Cfds. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:05, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Pinging the following from speedy discussion: @Armbrust, @Marcocapelle, @Smasongarrison, @Liz. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:13, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I support renaming to either option. I have a slight preference for B for no particular reason. As long as we're consistent, I'm content. Mason (talk) 23:58, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Alder carrs

Convert Category:Alder carrs to article Alder carr
Nominator's rationale: I don't really know what to do with this category. I think it's for a very specific kind of wetland that only applies to a specific kind of tree. This category feels like a non-defining intersection between kind of tree and kind of landform, but I'm not an expert. Mason (talk) 00:58, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: This category appears regularly as a feature on early Ordnance Survey maps. Leutha (talk) 08:18, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Leutha Can you explain the importance/defininingness of the category because I'd really like to understand. Mason (talk) 00:20, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Southeast Asia articles with deprecated tags

Nominator's rationale: No longer being populated by template or found in code. Gonnym (talk) 21:39, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. @Gonnym, I think you should combine all these "deprecated tags" categories under one banner. They are a bit spread over the page and it would also make deciding easier. Omnis Scientia (talk) 23:18, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Post-independence history of Bengal

Nominator's rationale: merge, both this category and its parent contain only a few subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:38, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. Seems reasonable to combine them. Mason (talk) 23:58, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:United States articles with deprecated tags

Nominator's rationale: No longer being populated by Template:WikiProject United States or found in any template code. Gonnym (talk) 21:29, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:History of Lithuania (1569–1795)

Nominator's rationale: merge, the two categories cover nearly the same period. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:07, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Early modern history of Bengal

Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Crime action films

Nominator's rationale: Hybrid genre term that is not in common usage (unlike lets say, action comedy or even action thriller). Searching for it on google, gives one imdb list, then several lists for one genre or the other. Per the action film article, "Action films often interface with other genres. Yvonne Tasker wrote that films are often labelled action thrillers, action-fantasy and action-adventure films with different nuances." Andrzejbanas (talk) 14:48, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: I'd include the sub-categories within this general category again, but I suppose that is implied in this process. Andrzejbanas (talk) 15:07, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Prostitution in the State of Palestine

Nominator's rationale: I propose to upmerge, now there is only one article and I see no potensial for the growth. Aldij (talk) 14:48, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Battles involving the Qarmatians

Nominator's rationale: These battles concern a specific subgroup of Qarmatians, namely those of the Qarmatian 'republic' of Bahrayn under the al-Jannabi family. This was the main Qarmatian group, but by no means the only one, and at any rate it should be distinguished. Other "Qarmatian" battles, like the Battle of Hama (even though the Qarmatian label is debatable here), are not included. Constantine 07:18, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Firelei Báez

Nominator's rationale: Contains only two non-free files and not even the main article Firelei Báez. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Indian music series

Nominator's rationale: Duplicate category. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:55, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Coke Studio (franchise)

Nominator's rationale: Probably unnecessary disambiguation. This is missing a parent article about the franchise as a whole, or the original Brazilian series. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:54, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:IK Sirius Fotboll seasons

Nominator's rationale: Single-article uncategorized category. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Galician animated films

Nominator's rationale: In accordance with Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2024_June_3#Category:Galician_films. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:39, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Irish films" are not the same as "Irish (or Gaelic) language films" and that's why there are two different categories (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Irish_animated_films). For the same reason, "Galician films" (or "Galician animated films") are not the same as "Galician language films". Gasparoff (talk) 08:39, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Higher Walton F.C. players

Nominator's rationale: Uncategorized, single-article category for a defunct football club without a topic category. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:38, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, just needs some research for other footballers to be added to it - I simply have not got around to it yet (and where are the Lancastrian football experts who could be doing so???) In Vitrio (talk) 09:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:PAW Patrol (franchise)

Nominator's rationale: Uncategorized duplicate category. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 04:31, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The TV series (currently at Category:PAW Patrol), and the franchise are not the same thing. See also Talk:PAW_Patrol#Split_and_move_proposal. Gonnym (talk) 06:04, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Category:Members of the League of Women Voters

Nominator's rationale: Simple membership in the League of Women Voters is non-defining. User:Namiba 15:29, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Thoughts on renaming and purging?
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 02:42, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lean towards merge. Given that it's not very defining by itself. Mason (talk) 00:01, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
