Nominator's rationale: Hosting an all-star game is not defining for a professional team. The league, not the team, runs the event. User:Namiba 17:06, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete but, alternatively, convert to article like "List of Major League Baseball All-Star Game venues". Omnis Scientia (talk) 18:02, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: This is an aspect of the story, not the character themselves. Fails WP:NONDEF and should be merged. Created by a blocked user. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 15:26, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Coats of arms of Yale University. (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 04:41, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: ~This was recently speedily renamed from "Shields of Yale University" to "Coat of arms of Yale University", but needs either a plural (coats of arms) or a collective noun e.g. Category:Heraldry of Yale University. – Fayenatic London 13:51, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Anti-war video games

[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: purge. (I did comment in this discussion, but only to say I would be willing to implement the result of the discussion if it called for purging.) (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 03:49, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: The fact is that almost none of these video games have been described as anti-war, leading to this largely being original research. I can see a few ones that are overtly anti-war, like Spec-Ops, This War of Mine and Valiant Hearts, but it's not really enough for an entire category on it. I suggest a *very* selective merge until there are more games that reliable sources call "anti-war" rather than just having a few "war is bad" themes in their story. This would also imply a dual merge to Category:Video games about the military for some of them. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 00:20, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Zxcvbnm, would you be willing to implement this? — Qwerfjkltalk 18:37, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Qwerfjkl, Marcocapelle, and Zxcvbnm: I am willing to do the purging if nobody else will. My understanding of this discussion is we are purging, and then if the category is too small we do a follow-up CfD for a merge? HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 16:57, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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 but purge Category:Epistle to the Hebrews. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 18:41, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: delete (or convert to disambiguation page), the Hebrew language and the epistle to the Hebrews are two completely unrelated topics and they each have their own category anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:26, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename (non-admin closure) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 04:35, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: This is not a family, but a category for descendants of an 8th-century figure, much like the parent cat Category:Husaynids. The nisba and main article is at al-Musawi, so the category should be named accordingly. Constantine ✍ 08:49, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Re-created women rulers by century categories

[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) HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 04:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: WP:G4 re-creation of categories previously split and deleted by consensus. I tried to speedy-delete them, but for technical and practical reasons, Liz advised me to take it to full CFD, so here I am. NLeeuw (talk) 03:51, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A "Ruler" is a neutral term for a person who rules. Regardless if they rule as a monarch in their own right, or merely rule as a temporary regent on behalf of another person. Thus, the term "Ruler" does not define what type of ruler. The Ruler-category is thus usefull and practical to use as a container category for the sub-categories Regents and Monarchs. It makes them easier to find.
When the Ruler-category is removed, it will be harder to find the answer to a question such as "How many women ruled in the 6th-century"? The women-monarchs and the women-regents will no longer have a container-category. It makes the information harder to find for an interested reader. That is a shame.
I made this comment simply to state an opinion, since I do not have the capacity to take part in any long discussion, but it was a shame for the reader and for practicality that such a descision was made. Thank you.--Aciram (talk) 00:32, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry that you do not agree with the long series of decisions – each of which has been taken by consensus – to phase out the term "ruler" of categorisation purposes. Over the course of February to September 2023, a steady majority of Wikipedians has found "ruler" to be too ambiguous as a term in hundreds of category names, and that it is better to be more specific about which positions a given person held, so as to avoid confusion. You are entitled to your opinion that it is a "neutral term" (even though that is evidently a minority view now). Consensus can still change, but only through discussion and establishing consensus. I've given you many opportunities to participate. Since you refuse(d) to engage in discussion, however, there is no reason for the consensus to change in favour of your point of view.
What is not appropriate, however, is to re-create categories that have been deleted by consensus simply because you disagree with the consensus, thereby disrupting the process. This isn't the first time, but I do hope it will be the last. I do not want to be in conflict with you, but rather work together where we can, especially when it comes to writing about women's history.
Please understand that I am no more opposed to women's history than men's history; the entire Rulers category tree is being phased out regardless of gender. Rather, by splitting the women rulers category tree into more specific trees, we are actually paying more respect to different individual women and groups of women instead of lumping them all together as unspecified "rulers", with the apparent goal of turning them into mere numbers ( "How many women ruled in the 6th-century"?). I have enough respect for women to say they are not all the same, and the community consensus appears to agree. Have a good day (and I hope you had a good International Women's Day yesterday).
