February 6

[edit]

Category:Vasconic languages

[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 Timrollpickering (talk) 19:33, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The Vasconic language group is accoring to the subjects own article not an actually accepted language family, as such languages should not be categorized as being part of it uncritically. ★Trekker (talk) 23:53, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:WIP people

[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 Timrollpickering (talk) 19:33, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: At the very least, this should be renamed to Category:WIP-FM people to match WIP-FM although there's a complicated story between WIP-AM and WTEL (AM). However, I think deletion makes more sense: some of the articles in the category don't even mention WIP and I cannot find any subtree of our categorization system that categorizes people by radio station in this way.

[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) Qwerfjkltalk 14:14, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: To correct the word order - eparchies should be first. While the term "uniate" is not now in use, it would be anachronistic not to use it for the time in which the Ruthenian Uniate Church was in operation. Laurel Lodged (talk) 20:43, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: Moot. The category's content has been moved to Category:Paul D. Schreiber Senior High School alumni. (Non-admin close) Pichpich (talk) 20:57, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category:Paul D. Schreiber High School alumni already exists. After this now-empty category is deleted, the old category should be renamed to match the parent article Paul D. Schreiber Senior High School. Alansohn (talk) 19:21, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The result of the discussion was: delete. Kbdank71 02:54, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Category contains only two members, both of which are redirects, because their given subjects are not notable enough for inclusion. It is absolutely possible that this category could be useful in the future, but right now it only serves to encourage creation of non-notable pages. fuzzy510 (talk) 18:57, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Gendered surnames. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 14:15, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The name of this category is misleading, since there is no category for musculine names. It suggests that all other surnames are musculine. It creates a huge issue in case of non-binary genders. It should be at least renamed to something like "Language-specific gendered surnames". Geysirhead (talk) 18:40, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[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) Qwerfjkltalk 14:20, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete per WP:SMALLCAT, only one article in the category. There is no need to merge, the article is already in proper Khitan and manuscripts subcategories. Marcocapelle (talk) 07:12, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose WP:SMALLCAT says Avoid categories that, by their very definition, will never have more than a few members, unless such categories are part of a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme, such as subdividing songs in Category:Songs by artist or flags in Category:Flags by country. I would suggest that Category:Manuscripts by script is just such "a large overall accepted sub-categorization scheme". Daask (talk) 17:30, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
