The result of the discussion was:rename. There are no non-supernatural revelation contents here. There are plenty of categories about scientific and rational discovery, but none of them are about anything called "revelation." That term is best reserved for the supernatural.--Mike Selinker (talk) 11:42, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale:Rename. The article "Supernatural revelation" was merged to "Revelation." Hence there is no main article for Category:Supernatural revelation. Also, Category:Revelation is not being used for anything else, hence there is no ambiguity with other possible categorical usage of "revelation." Note: The main argument against both the article and category is that the "supernatural" in "supernatural revelation" is 1) unnecessary, 2) a misnomer and 3) a bit of an oxymoron: The things we sometimes think of as "above" ("super") nature, are actually just a part of nature. The core concept in "supernatural" is indeed "nature" and "nature" (in this usage) simply means 'all things within reality.' The term "physical" is similar: If its "real" then it must also be "physical" in some way, even if its not yet well explained. Real things conform to physical laws, either known or yet unknown. If its "real" its also "natural" in some way, so terming something "supernatural" is thus an unnecessary misnomer. Regards -Stevertigo (t | c) 22:54, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Revelation can be both supernatural (special revelation), and General (revealed through the use of reason). These are distinct concepts. General revelation concerns the physical universe, human conscience and providence. Ergo, this category should remain separate from revelation in general.

Merge because in general when people speak of "revelation" they are often thinking along the lines of "supernatural revelation". If there is a more specific name needed, it would be a sub-category that includes things termed "revelation" that are not climed to involve the direct manifestation of God or Angels. That would be the less common use of the term.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:20, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- I note that the target is currently empty and tagged for speedy deletion. I consider the present category is sufficiently precise. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:11, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What do you mean "tagged for speedy deletion?" Is that to mean that we are forbidden from using Category:Revelation even if we choose to use it here? That is what we are discussing after all. On your actual point, isn't "revelation" itself sufficiently precise? What other different kinds of revelation are there, for which we have articles? Note, it has been clearly decided that "supernatural revelation" was unnecessarily "precise" as an article, hence why should it be regarded as "precise" for a category? -Stevertigo (t | c) 05:54, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Opposed speedy. These are primarily subcategories of Category:Fantasy video games, for which the standard naming format - which is also the clear and logical one - is "Foo video games"; this change would bring them in line with the other categories there, but was objected to as changing from topic to set categories.

Oppose Not about videogames with nocturnal settings, or lengendary settings. 70.49.127.65 (talk) 04:12, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Did you look at your proposed titles? Myth is not Myth (game), Nights is not Nights (game) ; Your proposed titles encompass much more than just the "Myth"-series or the "Nights"-series, thus are overly broad names. 70.49.127.65 (talk) 04:02, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The thing is that's the convention for the cateory tree: Fooseriesname video games. - The BushrangerOne ping only 04:47, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"Dark fantasy" is not a series, it is a genre. "Mana (series) video games" and "Bone (comics) video games" shows that the convention is only for unambiguous names. That about 1/3 of the entries in the category don't use "video games" shows that it's not really a convention, otherwise it would be more like 90%. 70.49.127.65 (talk) 03:55, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
ResponseWP:SMALLCAT doesn't apply to eponymous categories, or else there could literally be a category for every article. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:41, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Except it's not Myth- (and Nights-)the-game that the category is named after. It's Myth-the-game series. - The BushrangerOne ping only 15:53, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale:Rename. As an adjective, "Tajik" can refer to the ethnic Tajik people, the country of Tajikistan, or the Tajik language, and the three are not always co-extensive in topics. We now have Category:Tajikistani culture for the culture of Tajikistan. I suggest that this category name be changed to clarify that is is for the culture of the ethnic Tajik people, since "Tajik" is often used as a simple synonym for "Tajikistani". The nominated category could be a disambiguation page in the same way that Category:Tajik people is. Good Ol’factory(talk) 02:43, 22 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
