Article already exists: List of Grammy Award categories. It is not necessary to have a list specifically for a given year. New categories can be added to existing list. Another Believer (Talk) 16:57, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Isn't the issue that the Grammy's have significantly reduced the number of categories, thereby "raising to bar" to win? No more separate male and female vocalists, but just best vocalist, for example. Accordingly, this article may be justified. Cullen328 (talk) 17:20, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • The existing list contains current and former categories. If anything, the existing list could be improved. I don't see the purpose of an additional list. --Another Believer (Talk) 18:49, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's a drastic overhaul of nearly all Grammy Award categories. It's more than just adding new or removing abandoned categories; it's more complicated than that. Many existing categories have been renamed and several categories have merged. I think this justifies a clear, complete and comprehensive list of awards from 2012 on. Zighlveit (talk) 23:13, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why not just update the existing list of Grammy categories? Category names change over time (one glance at Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album illustrates this), but we wouldn't create a category list for other individual years. 2012 is no exception. Even if it requires a major overhaul, it would be more helpful to have all former and current categories on one list. There is no reason that the existing list itself could not be expanded to FL status, with tables displaying the various categories along with the years awarded, etc. Several of the newly-created articles should also be deleted as articles already exist (example: Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance). I certainly take no ownership of the Grammy-related articles, but I've become fairly familiar with the award categories from my research for Wikipedia and now I feel I have to go comb through dozens of articles to accommodate these changes (not by any fault of yours, though references were not included with many of the edits). --Another Believer (Talk) 23:24, 7 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Agree that the nomination misrepresents the issue. But then, so does the title. Needs a name change. Easy enough to put it in a sortable list form, too, with the categories before and after. Anarchangel (talk) 23:36, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to Grammy Award changes, 2012 or something, to better represent that it is an article (not list) about changes to the awards in 2012. Adabow (talk · contribs) 04:38, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't think a separate article should be created specifically for 2012 changes. This information can be included in the main Grammy Award article and/or within the 54th Grammy Awards article. My preference would be to delete this article or move it to "54th Grammy Awards" so that we can begin work on the 2012 details and ceremony. --Another Believer (Talk) 15:04, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
