- Merge One of the few defining awards but we should stick to the offical categories they were awarded in. (I checked and all the biographies are already in Category:Israeli economists or Category:Israeli historians, so no dual merge is needed.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 19:20, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

Category:Apartheid States
[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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:04, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: This is an odd category that does not meet WP:SUBJECTIVECAT, and depending on which subjectivity is used will likely also fail WP:NARROWCAT. There are currently five entries (Bantustan, Confederate States of America, Rhodesia, Union of South Africa, and South West Africa), and it is unclear what the inclusion criteria for that diverse mix of articles is meant to be. All entries have issues. The Union of South Africa is where apartheid developed, but only towards the end, and most of apartheid history took place after the establishment of a Republic. South West Africa did have an apartheid system throughout its history, but it was not a state. Those are the key polities covered in the Apartheid article. The concept of Bantustans was a product of apartheid, but it sounds very odd for the bantustans to be described as "Apartheid states". I could see an academic paper creating a meaning for the label that would work, but that is far too specific for a category. Rhodesia and the Confederate States of America had severe racial discrimination, but not apartheid systems. I don't see how the category could be defined in a way that would add value to a reading of the Apartheid article. CMD (talk) 10:26, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. The creating editor's subjective definition of "Apartheid" is (at best) questionable. As is their apparent classification of all forms of segregation or discrimination as equivalent to (or examples of) "Apartheid". In most cases such classifications being applied without any explanation or apparent consideration of WP:CATV... Guliolopez (talk) 19:23, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

Category:Honor

- The result of the discussion was: rename to Category:Honour. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:51, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Propose renaming Category:Honor to Category:Honour
- Nominator's rationale: To match main article Honour. Opposed last month at CFDS. AusLondonder (talk) 09:26, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Mild oppose, as the contents include many articles and sub-cats with the spelling "honor", many of which are US-centric and therefore would never be renamed to match. – Fayenatic London 14:56, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- That doesn't make sense as to why the main category should not match the main article. That's standard practice. AusLondonder (talk) 05:33, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- Rename with redirect per nom. I don't follow Fayenatic london's argument here. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:58, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Category:Working-class culture in Baltimore
[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. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:51, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: This category is mostly populated with neighborhoods. It's not clear exactly what makes a piece of culture "working-class" and how we draw the line, and it's not the normal way we organize categories. Sdkb talk 04:27, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah I recently saw Category:Upper class culture in Maryland which again mostly consists of neighbourhoods and wasn't sure it was appropriate. AusLondonder (talk) 09:29, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Delete, after purging the neighborhoods not much useful is left. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:31, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep The claim that neighborhoods don't belong in the category is not an argument for deleting the category. It's an argument for not including the neighborhoods. And I would argue that neighborhoods do belong if reliable sources characterize them that way. The idea that we can't refer to anything as "working-class" is absurd. We can do exactly that by using reliable sources that discuss the working class nature of an event, cultural practice, organization, etc. Simply because the idea of "working-class culture" is unknown to the nominator is not at all a justification for deletion.

- Propose merging Category:Singaporean case law by topic to Category:Singaporean case law
- Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer Mason (talk) 03:36, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Category:Shooting coaches by nationality
[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: merge. HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 01:51, 19 October 2024 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Shooting coaches by nationality to Category:Shooting coaches
- Propose merging Category:French shooting coaches to Category:Shooting coaches and Category:French sports coaches (added 11 Oct at 16:13)
- Nominator's rationale: Redundant category layer with only one nationality in here, which isn't helpful for navigation. Mason (talk) 01:28, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Merge, also Category:French shooting coaches to Category:Shooting coaches as it only contains 1 article. I was going to nominate Category:Shooting coaches itself for upmerging to Sports coaches, but I found a US college subcat and other articles to go in it via links from German Wikipedia. – Fayenatic London 15:12, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Merge both per above. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:33, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
