Nominator's rationale: These are just two trees, one for categories like Category:Dutch people by ethnic or national origin, and the other for categories like Category:People of Dutch descent. Both are container categories, and their current names are not distinct enough. Perhaps it would be better to merge them? Yorkporter (talk) 20:33, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator's rationale: Yes, we categorize individuals according to their ethnicity and the ancestral origins of their heritage. However, we seldom delve into the intricacies that emerge when these two factors intersect, thus we do not categorize people based on the shared aspects of their ethnicity and ethnic descent. Yorkporter (talk) 19:20, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, the fact that they (or their parents) moved to the Middle East does not make them Arabs. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:58, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Confusion between Arab ethnicity and geographic containers for member-countries of the Arab League. Place Clichy (talk) 06:06, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Soviet television series by century[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. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 17:45, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's only one category in here, which is unhelpful for navigation Mason (talk) 15:24, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. These categories are created based on a template that is looking for them. While the template can be modified to not look for them, that is just pointless work that will hinder any future category creation (as it won't be red linked anymore). Furthur more, these categories are all part of a huge tree and set of categories and removing links in this tree won't help no one. Also, the fact that there is only 1 sub-category at the moment, is not because of a lack of content that fits, but because of lack of editorial focus as television programs where obviously present in the 20th centuary in most if not all of the above countries. Gonnym (talk) 16:19, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In response to the first part of your rationale: rather than modify {{Century nationality television series category}} to not look for this parent, it would rather be coded to use e.g. Category:Soviet television series by century if it exists, otherwise to use Category:Soviet television series. Actually, because the Soviet Union only existed within one century, all the Soviet TV topic categories should be restructured to go straight into the C20 hierarchy, without a Soviet C20 layer. But for all the other countries, the second part of your rationale stands. – Fayenatic London 22:34, 1 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 18:57, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per nom. By the way, diffusing television series by century is odd anyway, considering that it is such a recent phenomenon. Historical value is, at best, to be found in decade categories. Marcocapelle (talk) 20:45, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per nom. It will be another 76 years before any get a 3rd subcat. Templates should be servants, not masters. Perspicax (talk) 11:28, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was: rename all. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 18:05, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Propose renaming:
sub-regions added later
Nominator's rationale: rename per precedent in this previous discussion. These are topic categories. The proposed names align with Category:Diasporas in the United States and Category:Diasporas by country of origin. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:59, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom. I've also added Category:European-American society for speedy renaming to Category:European diaspora in the United States per this and previous Cfd. Omnis Scientia (talk) 15:42, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per precedent (should this even be discussed? I mean there were a lot of categories in the previous CfD) Deltaspace42 (talk • contribs) 10:50, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Support per nom Mason (talk) 15:46, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Support One time, I had to relocate several articles on Armenian-American people because they were misplaced in the as-yet-unnominated Category:Armenian American. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:26, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thank you, I will add the Eastern European diasporas too, below. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:02, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Marcocapelle, I would remove Category:Eastern Europeans in the United States from rename as there are several categories across many countries like this (for sub-regions of a continent that is) named as such and not as "Eastern European diaspora" (and so on). Omnis Scientia (talk) 09:51, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Though, if you think sub-regions should be named as such as well, it would be easier to speedy them. Omnis Scientia (talk) 09:53, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have listed the other region categories further above in this nomination, so the proposal is internally consistent. Marcocapelle (talk) 09:55, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      Very well; I'll do the same for other sub-regions. Omnis Scientia (talk) 12:08, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rename all. Fooian Barian categories are ambiguous both because it can apply to either stuff from Foo in Bar or stuff from Bar in Foo, and because it is does not separate people categories and topic categories. Anyway adjectives are never good category names. The proposed renamings, as the precedent ones, solve both kinds of ambiguity. Place Clichy (talk) 05:52, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
