[edit]- 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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 18:55, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Boven-Digoel internees to Category:Boven-Digoel concentration camp detainees
- Nominator's rationale: Boven-Digoel has been moved by WP:RM. However, rather than a speedy move to that name, I suggest also changing "internees" to "detainees" as that is the word used in the main article. "Detainees" is also used for at least 3 categories within Category:Prisoners and detainees by prison (Guantanamo, Kandahar, Bagram). – Fayenatic London 22:05, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- Support as the person who asked Boven-Digoel to be moved to Boven-Digoel concentration camp not long ago, I think this follow-up move makes some sense, although for myself I wouldn't get too caught up in detainee vs internee, I don't see a huge difference. But for clarity having it match the new article title in some way would be helpful. --Dan Carkner (talk) 03:42, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Support The title explains at a glance what Boven-Digoel was. Clarity is needed with categories. Dimadick (talk) 00:35, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
- Support per nom. --Just N. (talk) 15:01, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge/delete (in this case, merge and delete coincide) (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 19:00, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:SMALLCAT with only 1 article. User:Namiba 20:27, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Category:Alt-right musicians
[edit]- 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 (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 19:02, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: This appears to be a trivial intersection and non-defining characteristic of musicians, as well as subjective, not a trait that is commonly and consistently bestowed upon the ostensible members by reliable sources. As far as I know we generally don't categorize Musicians by political ideology. We have the reasonably broad category Political music groups, but don't have categories for conservative musicians, liberal musicians, Neo-nazi musicians, Marxist musicians, etc. (Progressive musicians by genre is about progressive music, not progressivism). "Alt-right" itself is an ill-defined, loose term thrown around with uneven frequency. So even though there are pop-culture fluff articles like "There’s an alt-right version of everything", the subjectivity of the term "alt-right" is another issue hindering categorization (Taylor Swift?). While there are verifiably musicians who have a variety of political views, the intersection of ideology and this occupation is rarely a defining characteristic of people, especially when categorizing living people. --Animalparty! (talk) 19:58, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete WP:BLPCAT violation, highly contentious label. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 05:07, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:SUBJECTIVECAT....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:41, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Alt-right is too subjective a term to easily define. It is also way too pejorative a term to be well applied.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:16, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete While not a trivial aspect, the category could be used to attack musicians for their perceived political affiliations. Alt-right has become a pejorative term, due to its identification with white nationalism. We could rename the category to Category:Bigot musicians, and we would have the same results. Dimadick (talk) 00:42, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
- Well not quite, since there are clearly bigots who are not alt right (at least if you exclude Black Hebrew Israelites from the alt right, which virtually everyone would, and arguably members of the Nation of Islam, and I could make convincing arguments for some leftist anti-semites as well). However this category is going to run into lots of problems of self-described, and it will be the question why we do not have Category:Conservative musicians, Category:Moderate musicians and Category:Liberal musicians.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:37, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. --Just N. (talk) 15:05, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Rename as a category to contain the list articles. The sub-cats should be moved up into the parent. – Fayenatic London 21:53, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: delete (non-admin closure) Marcocapelle (talk) 19:11, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary eponymous parent when there's already a "works by" category and no other significant content to add. StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 15:25, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- КиноФан2021's Answer: Alan Menken's also only has "works by", but his category is not nominated for removal. КиноФан2021Talk to me 12:50, 4 August 2021
- "Other stuff exists" is not a valid reason (in this context) for keeping the category. By all means, nominate that category if you feel it should also be deleted. Sean Stephens (talk) 23:58, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete as per nomination. Sean Stephens (talk) 23:58, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: follow form of other categories of people by location DemonStalker (talk) 12:38, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- Merge to Category:People from Huelva. Huelva is the appropriate province in Spain. This is a small community and the category has just 1 entry....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 09:01, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete we do not cateogrize people by where they are born, only where they are from, which is often the same, but If someone leaves where they are born when an infant and never returns they are not from there.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:17, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The article on San Bartolomé de la Torre is a stub, and the municipality has less than 4,000 residents. I doubt that we have enough content for an eponymous category. Dimadick (talk) 00:46, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
- Comment This category has been emptied. Liz Read! Talk! 15:40, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Category is for "Companies that create systems for bicycle sharing." while there is a "Bicycle sharing companies" category already DemonStalker (talk) 11:54, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Cinema by location. bibliomaniac15 21:55, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Cinema by region to Category:Cinema by location
- Nominator's rationale: rename, location is the broader term we need here, while region may specifically apply to (sub)continents or parts of countries. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:29, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- Rename as per nomination. Categorising cinema by region would not assist in navigation, whilst doing so by location would. Sean Stephens (talk) 00:00, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

[edit]- 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. bibliomaniac15 21:55, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: Very few Mega-Earths are known, and the category is also defined in the negative for habitability. Both members are already in the sole parent, Category:Mega-Earths. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 04:28, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete since all are currently in category mega earths. We only have 4 articles, so splitting in any way is not justified.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:18, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Keep since splitting may become justifiable in the future due to the creation of articles on non-habitable mega-Earths. Jtadesse (talk) 22:46, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: While we have Category:Exoplanets in the habitable zone (i.e. habitable planets), do we have any categorization schemes besides this one regarding non-habitability? It would seem to reason that if the vast majority of known planets in the universe are non-habitable, then there is little use in categorizing them as such. --Animalparty! (talk) 00:05, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NONDEF without objection to create Category:Habitable Mega-Earths when enough articles exist to populate such a category. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:13, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
- You mean Category:Mega-Earths in the habitable zone? That would be okay. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 23:55, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:31, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. Seriously? There's hardly any habitable Mega-Earths. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 01:19, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
