[edit]

Category:Members of the Chamber of Deputies (Mexico)

[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: split using the wording Category:Members of the Chamber of Deputies (Mexico) for FOO. There is no specific admin action needed here. bibliomaniac15 03:28, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Split into 32 categories for by-state sorting, along the lines of other similar categories for other countries (especially Brazil). This is the largest such cat at this time with 2,650 members. The cat to be split would remain as a parent.

  • Oppose, this would result in a trivial intersection. Splitting by political party would make much more sense. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:59, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. This is entirely consistent with the way national politicians are subcategorized in other countries — the United States does subcategorize congresspeople by which particular state they represented, Canada does subcategorize MPs by which particular province they represented, the UK does subcategorize MPs for which of the four constituent countries of the UK they represented, and on and so forth. Categorizing them this way vs. categorizing them by political party isn't an either/or thing, but can absolutely be a both/and thing, because the US, the UK and Canada all have both a by-state-province-or-country scheme and a by-party scheme.
    However, Sammi Brie, you do realize that you don't need CFD's authorization to do that, right? CFD needs to discuss the potential deletion of existing categories, not the potential creation of new categories — you don't need us to authorize the creation of these subcategories, you're allowed to just dive right in and do it. Bearcat (talk) 14:00, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I at least wanted to bring it up for discussion considering its size. I do see that we're also starting to get a by-legislature split, which is also a good idea and should be expanded. Given that reelection to consecutive terms is very recent to Mexico, this is also acceptable. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 16:53, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: double merge, also to Category:Exoplanets in the Gliese Catalog. That outcome appears to be consistent with others in Category:Wikipedia categories named after stars. – Fayenatic London 17:32, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: No such additional level of categorisation in other Category:Wikipedia categories named after stars. ~~~~

Nominator's rationale: Same as with #Category:Dictator below and as stated by the nominator there; not an objective criterion of categorisation. Not merging into that nomination since it has comments already. ~~~~

The result of the discussion was: delete. – Fayenatic London 22:07, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: These categories mainly contain articles about 26 letters written in Egypt and 8 in Babylon from a total of 59 in Category:Amarna letters. 1 Egyptian stele and 2 other Babylonian texts were added to the epigraph categories later. The term epigraph, which according to Epigraphy, means any sort of text, suggests that the categories should contain all the articles about texts from Egypt and Babylon. I believe that the categories are unnecessary and could be deleted as the articles are already in Category:Amarna letters, Category:Ancient Egyptian stelas or Category:Akkadian inscriptions. The creator of the categories was banned for sockpuppetry in 2015. TSventon (talk) 09:03, 21 February 2022 (UTC) Copy edited. TSventon (talk) 23:27, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Vague and subjective designation of a political leader. Seems to be the same articles classified under Category:Burmese Dictators which is redundant. Liz Read! Talk! 06:27, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
