Category:Panzer commanders

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: keep. ✗plicit 06:56, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: No reason to break out German tank commanders out of the Category:Tank commanders. Other tank commanders in the parent category do not have sub-categories by nationality. K.e.coffman (talk) 13:32, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"Panzer" is German for "tank", so machinery / weaponry is the same. ----K.e.coffman (talk) 14:02, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That's right. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 14:10, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the proposed rename because other categories (American, British, Russian) will certainly be by nationality. No Great Shaker (talk) 20:16, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but rename this is a bit of an odd categorisation (as is tank commanders for that matter) because some of the people on this list were commanders of units containing tanks, not necessarily involved in commanding a tank of their own (although some like Abrams did, as they were armoured corps/branch officers who did ride in a tank in the earlier and even later stages of their careers). I think it (the suggested rename and other nationality subcats) could do with being more clearly defined as being only for people who have personally commanded a tank. In a few of the articles in the cat, that isn't clearly the case. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 07:27, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- I see no need to rename: the fact that a panzer is a German tank of WWII era can be dealt with in a headnote. 9 articles is plenty large enough to keep. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:47, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The term “Chars d'assaut” hasn’t been adopted into common english usage, you won’t find in any english dictionary, unlike french words “ambulance”, “chauffer” or “dossier” for example. —-Nug (talk) 19:52, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: rename, it is not the diagnosis that needs to be treated, it is the mental disorder that is treated. Also it is kind of WP:C2C: most subcategories have the form "Treatment of (mental disorder)". Marcocapelle (talk) 09:38, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:OCMISC, "general" is in this context just another word for "other. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:11, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Lists of people by epithet. ✗plicit 06:56, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: I don't know what "name feature" means. Most of the entries are already in Category:Epithets or Category:Lists of people by nickname. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:09, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I recently added a number of articles to this category based on the existing articles in it (perhaps prompting this discussion). In particular, I added many "List of people known as" lists, as the category had seemed incomplete for including, for instance List of people known as "the Great" and not List of people known as the Navigator. My perhaps incorrect interpretation is that the category is for lists whose inclusion criteria is a person who has any name with a particular feature (e.g., reduplication or including a particular epithet). There is overlap between the categories, but they are distinct; Category:Epithets is not only for lists and both it and Category:Lists of people by nickname distinguishes that the name is not a given name or surname. This is a a long-standing category that appears to have had a fair number of pageviews; it can be renamed or its inclusion criteria can be clarified, but I'm unclear of the policy or benefit that would support deletion. —Ost (talk) 08:43, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT. The target is up for debate: Category:Slovenian historians is not accurate, while Category:Slovene historians and Category:Austro-Hungarian historians do not exist. The article is already in Category:Gorizian people so a second merge target is not needed. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:58, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
